Sh. Ramann mentioned that We, at SIDBI, are working towards strengthening and deepening the MSME sector. SIDBI aims at growing its balance sheet to `5 trillion to facilitate increased credit to MSME sector, in line with the GoI vision of making India a USD 5 trillion economy.
Utilising the facility extended by RBI in the form of Special Liquidity Fund, SIDBI has launched innovative schemes to meet short- and medium-term needs of the MSME sector, especially smaller/underserved/unserved MSEs, through
· ‘SIDBI MSME Covid Response Fund (SMCRF)’ to provide funding to MSMEs / small businesses / micro finance borrowers through investment in debt instruments of financial institutions (FIs) such as NBFCs, Fin-Tech companies and Micro Finance companies,
· Partial Guarantee Pool Loan Issuance Scheme wherein the Bank would provide loan to well managed and performing multiple small and mid-sized NBFCs and MFIs, which would be backed by a common partial guarantee provided by a third party / arranger,
· Scheme of Assistance through Regulated Entities (REs) using two-tier financial Intermediation will provide resource support to rated REs (NBFCs, MFIs, banks/ SFBs) for on-lending to relatively smaller and unrated / low rated NBFCs/ MFIs.
SIDBI has been pioneer in developing digital interventions like PSBLoansin59minutes and Receivables Exchange of India (RXIL) (TReDS platform). Bringing convergence in the developmental and financing roles of the Bank, SIDBI is developing new channels for credit intervention. One such channel GST Sahay, a first reference app for invoice-based financing (not invoice discounting) for small businesses, is under development. Another digital intervention aimed by the Bank is the MSME Formalisation Project, targeted to provide MSMEs better digital access to Governance, Markets and Financial Services. Udyam registration is expected to open new door to informal sector to get assistance from formal institutions. SIDBI is supporting Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC) which is an initiative of the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), to promote open networks for exchange of goods and services over digital/electronic networks. Additionally, SIDBI has also been streamlining and digitizing its own credit processes creating an end-to-end solution starting from enquiry of loan to disbursement. The goal has been set to reduce the turnaround and provide low-cost credit to the MSMEs.
SIDBI is reaching to underserved/unserved Micro enterprises through various GOi schemes. SIDBI is implementing agency of Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs for PM Street Vendor’s AtmaNirbhar Nidhi (PM SVANidhi) scheme to facilitate Urban Street Vendors (SVs) access to loan for resuming their livelihood activities post lockdown. SIDBI is also acting as a Nodal Agency for channelizing interest subvention to MLIs of Shishu loan under MUDRA. SIDBI has also been nominated as nodal agency for Interest Subvention Scheme of Ministry of AYUSH. Further, SIDBI is the Project Management Agency (PMA) for Production Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme for manufacturing of Telecom and Networking Products of Department of Telecommunications and (PLI) Scheme for Pharmaceuticals of Department of Pharmaceuticals.
