On March 2, Kompanion Bank, in partnership with the Sustainable Energy Financing Facilities in Kyrgyzstan (KyrSEFF), and with the support of JIA Business Association, held a meeting with entrepreneurs, where representatives of companies, as well as individual entrepreneurs in construction, restaurant, hotel and food businesses, as well as other industries, locked horns.
The meeting was mainly devoted to the presentation of energy-efficient business solutions provided by the Kompanion Bank under the Sustainable Energy Financing Facilities in Kyrgyzstan. Using those banking products, entrepreneurs can not only conduct energy-efficient upgrading, but also acquire additional profitable grants. Installation of energy-efficient equipment (replacement of production equipment, installation of pumps, fans, compressors), solar panels, modernization of greenhouses and heat insulation of industrial buildings will significantly decrease production costs.
“Kompanion is not just a bank that provides a classic range of banking services. We are on a social mission and we try to support projects that positively affect not only the development of small and medium-sized enterprises, but also have a positive impact on the environment. We have become partners with the Sustainable Energy Financing Facilities in Kyrgyzstan (KyrSEFF) and provide loans to businesses for energy efficient purposes with the possibility to receive grants of up to 15% of the loan amount. For example, having acquired a KGS20 million loan for the above-mentioned purposes, you have the opportunity to receive a grant of up to KGS3 million,” said Narynbek Alybaev, Deputy CEO of Kompanion Bank.
