[데일리한국 정우교 기자] The Financial Services Commission announced on the 27th that Chairman Kim Joo-hyun visited the Yangcheon Low Income Finance Integrated Support Center on the first day of the launch of micro-livelihood loans and inspected the site. At this meeting, Chairman Kim also mentioned additional resources along with a request for counseling staff.

First of all, Chairman Kim said, “Last week, there were many requests from difficult people for the 4-week counseling appointment.”

He explained, “The micro-livelihood loan is a product that supports those who are excluded from financial assistance because they cannot use institutional funding and existing policy microfinance products.” It is very meaningful to give an opportunity to use the small living expenses loan provided. ,” he said.

He also emphasized, “Regardless of how good the system is, it is meaningless if it does not work properly in the field.” At the same time, he said that complex counseling, such as △loan △debt modification △welfare system △job contact, should be carried out correctly.

He continued, “As this is the first system to be implemented, there may be trial and error, but we will closely monitor the status of the operation and quickly formulate necessary supplementary measures.” In this regard, the Small Finance Agency intends to expand counseling capacity for 375 people for a week by adding additional counseling personnel from the 3rd of next month.

Chairman Kim added, “If necessary, we will consult with related organizations on additional financial resources.”
