The initiative is aimed towards unlocking higher business value and delivering a digitally enhanced experience to MSME borrowers, Mehernosh Tata, chief executive officer of ERFL, said in a press release.
"This arrangement is a win-win for MSMEs, the bank and us. It will help channelise credit to the priority sector as we step up lending in a credit starved economy," he said.
Tata said this will expand the reach to underserved markets, enabling priority sector borrowers to get credit at lower costs.
As the country gradually moves out of Covid pandemic, the credit offered through the partnership will provide MSMEs with access to cost effective capital, aiding their economic revival and growth, he added.
