Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our services.

What makes this different from a regular SME loan?
Women in Business loans carry interest rates 2% lower than standard, have more flexible collateral requirements, and include free business development training and networking.
No, businesses with at least 51% women ownership qualify. Sole proprietorships owned by women also qualify automatically.
Two annual workshops covering financial literacy, digital marketing, supply chain management, and access to markets. One-on-one mentorship with successful women entrepreneurs is also available.

Terms & Conditions

The Women in Business Loan program is part of Omni-Trust Bank's commitment to gender-inclusive finance. Reduced rates are funded in part by development finance institution partnerships. Borrowers must attend at least one business development workshop per year.

Ownership verification is conducted at origination and annually. Changes in ownership structure that reduce women's ownership below 51% may result in reclassification to standard SME loan terms.
