Financial Services Department Yukon Micro Loan Program DNV provides Micro loans to Yukon citizens. Micro loans are a proven way of providing necessary capital to help small businesses succeed. For those with no credit or who are trying to rehabilitate poor credit, micro loans can be a great tool. They can help improve poor credit history or can be helpful for those borrowers who have minimal credit. Micro loans are based on character, trustworthiness and personal commitment. Unlike other loan programs, the Yukon Micro Loan Program is unique in that an extensive credit history and substan- tial collateral are not the main focus. Initial loan of up to $3,000. Loan terms from 3 months to 3 years. A small business loan for individuals who want to start, maintain or expand a small business. After each loan is repaid, and your payment records are in good standing, you may apply for access to increased amounts of credit.
UPCOMING EVENTS däna Näye Ventures will be hosting a booth at the Whitehorse Chamber of Commerce Business Connect Conference on April 19th and 20th, 2017
If you see us please come up to our booth to meet with our staff to see how DNV can help you!
