Under this agreement, the Korea Industrial Complex Corporation will deposit 10 billion KRW with IBK, and IBK will use this fund to provide a 20 billion KRW scale ‘win-win growth cooperative loan’.


The loan targets are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) located in industrial complexes managed by the Korea Industrial Complex Corporation that have been affected by COVID-19. The loan limit is up to 500 million KRW per company.



IBK will automatically reduce the loan interest rate by 0.65%p per annum and provide an additional reduction of up to 1.4%p per annum depending on the company’s credit rating and transaction contribution.
