System-forming enterprises will be allocated additional funds for preferential loans

The Russian government will additionally allocate about 21.5 billion rubles to finance concessional loans for backbone enterprises in the fields of industry and trade. The corresponding order was signed by the Chairman of the Government of the Russian Federation Mikhail Mishustin.

According to him, additional support will allow not to change the preferential rates approved in them until the end of the validity of credit agreements for up to a year.

The decision will affect almost 800 companies-borrowers of our country.

The program to support the backbone organizations of industry and trade was launched in March 2022. Within the framework of this program, loans at a preferential rate were available to such organizations to maintain their current activities. One company could receive up to 10 billion rubles for one year, a group of companies – up to 30 billion rubles. Borrowed funds made it possible to ensure the smooth operation of enterprises in the current economic situation.

In the Orenburg Region in 2022, 4 companies that are included in the federal list of backbone enterprises took advantage of preferential loans in the amount of more than 1.5 billion rubles.
