The program is available to small business owners located in Buk-gu who have been in operation for at least three months and have a personal credit score of 595 or higher. Each eligible business can receive a credit guarantee of up to 30 million KRW.


Buk-gu Office of Daegu will support the beneficiaries by subsidizing 3.0% of their bank loan interest for one year, while Daegu Credit Guarantee Foundation will offer preferential terms such as a 100% guarantee ratio (full guarantee) and a fixed guarantee fee of 0.8% per year. These measures are expected to significantly help small business owners in Buk-gu who are struggling with high financial costs to secure funding.


Park Jinwoo, Chairman of Daegu Credit Guarantee Foundation, stated, "We plan to actively collaborate with the nine district and county offices to expand the scale of special guarantees for low-interest management stability funds provided by local governments. We will provide comprehensive support so that small business owners can overcome financial difficulties and regain their vitality."



This special guarantee program, which will be implemented starting August 18, allows for easy application and document submission through the "Bojeung Dream" app.
