Q: What does the higher interest rate of this project mean?
A: The project is part of a pilot program where we experiment with the conditions of projects. The higher interest rate is not due to a change in the credit rating, which remains an A. The increase in interest is not paid by the financial institution or the entrepreneur.
Ms. Enkhtsetseg’s store grew from one to seven branches and from five to eighteen employees with GSB Capital's financial support. This allowed her to enhance her eco-friendly furniture offerings and offer services like free 3D design consultations. Looking to the future, Ms. Enkhtsetseg is committed to further growth and empowering women by creating employment opportunities, aligning with her vision of sustainable and inclusive business practices.
For SMEs like the one from Ms. Enkhtsetseg, GSB Capital offers a wide range of financial solutions, such as an eco-furniture loan. This is a loan specifically intended to purchase or produce eco-friendly furniture and promote sustainable consumption and production.
Operating from its main office in Ulaanbaatar and a branch in Uvurkhangai province, GSB Capital delivers its services both traditionally and online. GSB Capital is regulated by the Mongolian Financial Regulatory Commission. The institution provides reliable financial services and supports sustainable development. This contributes to the growth of businesses and the welfare of the wider community.
What social return could your investment generate?
In Mongolia, SMEs struggle financially due to strict bank requirements and a lack of government support, while over 200,000 households contribute to severe air pollution through coal usage. 80% of Ulaanbaatar's air pollution is attributed to households burning coal for heating, as highlighted in a 2019 Asian Development Bank study.
GSB Capital addresses these issues with express business loans, offering quick financing solutions for underserved SME entrepreneurs and a green loan program that provides eco-friendly heating alternatives to combat coal dependency. These initiatives not only spur economic growth but also address environmental concerns.
What financial return could your investment generate?
- Annual interest rate of 8%.
- The maturity of the loan is 24 months.
- Your investment will be repaid in equal instalments, including the interest, every six months.
- With an investment of 1,000 euros, your expected total repayment would be 1,100 euros.

Въздействие
В Монголия малките и средните предприятия са изправени пред значителни предизвикателства поради строгите банкови изисквания и необходимостта от по-голяма държавна подкрепа. Това затруднява предприемачите да се развиват и да създават работни места. Същевременно страната се бори със силно замърсяване на въздуха, особено в Улан Батор, където над 200 000 домакинства горят въглища, за да отопляват домовете си. Според проучване на Азиатската банка за развитие от 2019 г. приблизително 80% от замърсяването на въздуха в столицата се дължи на тази практика.
GSB Capital се занимава с тези проблеми по цялостен начин. От една страна, тя предлага бързи бизнес заеми на предприемачи от МСП с недостатъчно услуги, като им дава възможност да се развиват и да допринасят за местната икономика. От друга страна, GSB Capital инвестира в програма за зелени заеми, която насърчава екологични алтернативи за отопление, като намалява зависимостта от въглища и подобрява качеството на въздуха. Тези инициативи не само насърчават икономическия растеж, но и допринасят значително за по-чиста околна среда.
