The EaSI programme is intended for microenterprises and aims to provide more favourable financing conditions with lower interest rates and fees compared to those without the EaSI guarantee and to improve access to funding. The EaSI guarantee is a financial instrument supported by the European Union based on the Employment and Social Innovation (EaSI) programme, seeking to increase access to, and the availability of, microfinance. Microloans covered by the EaSI guarantee are approved as part of the Social Impact Banking (SIB) initiative.
