[Asia Economy Reporter Kwon Haeyoung] NH Nonghyup Financial Group signed a business agreement with the Ministry of Education on the 25th at the Nonghyup Bank headquarters located in Jung-gu, Seoul, to provide low-interest loans to after-school program instructors.

The loan interest rate is fixed at 3.3%, the loan period is 3 years, and applications can be made in units of 100,000 KRW from a minimum of 500,000 KRW to a maximum of 3,000,000 KRW. Loan applications can be made non-face-to-face using the Nonghyup Bank mobile application (All One Bank). Support is provided upon recommendation by the education office after confirmation by the school principal.


Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Education Yoo Eun-hye said, "I am grateful to Nonghyup Financial Group for cooperating with the spirit of overcoming COVID-19 together despite difficult management conditions," and added, "I hope this business agreement will help support the livelihoods of after-school instructors nationwide."
