The 'Anyone Commercial Lease Guarantee System' proposed by Song is a policy that allows tenants to use their deposit as collateral to obtain loans for rent and other expenses. It includes provisions to lend at an interest rate in the 3% range without differentiating based on credit ratings when borrowing lease deposits.
Former leader Song stated, "People with low credit ratings currently face interest rates of 6-13%, but under the Anyone Commercial Lease Guarantee System, loans will be provided at 3%, reducing rates by more than half." He added, "With this idea, money that has gone to secondary financial institutions can be returned to ordinary citizens." He emphasized that this could result in an interest saving effect of 13 million KRW per small business owner, totaling up to 10.5 trillion KRW.
