Findings
approval ratio 60 %; current default rate 5 % (after 18 months)
58 % of approved projects to overcome unemployment
extensive consulting and support efforts necessary, since the target group of the programme has deficits in
commercial and financial knowledge
good and efficient co-operation with chambers and other experts is key
significant output in relation to the limited subsidies granted
combination of ESF grants and microloans proves to be successful
