Loan applicants under the Agri-Business Small Medium Enterprises Investment Scheme (AGSMEIS) since the beginning of August 2021, started receiving messages from the Nirsal NIRSAL microfinance bank about the status of the fund applications.

What is Loan Decline?

Loan decline is a situation whereby a lender feels your application for a credit facility doesn’t meet the required eligibility criteria and therefore slams you with rejection.

Top with reasons why your loan can be declined are:

Advertisements
  1. Failure to meet Risk Acceptance Criteria
  2. Low credit score
  3. Unemployment
  4. Missing information
  5. Low income
  6. Temporary job
  7. Unverifiable application
  8. High debt-to-income ratio

The message read:

“Dear Applicant, kindly note that your loan application has been declined because your request does not meet our current Risk Acceptance Criteria. Thank you”

 

Some of the applicants receive the above message after waiting for approval for more than a year, some applications had been pending close two years

Technically, the application wasn’t absolutely FREE as claimed by the officials of the Federal Government who are in charge of the funds.

Hundreds of business owners spent N15, 000 each to qualify for submission of application.

Indirect Application Fee

Category Price
EDI training N10,000
Business Plan N5,000
TOTAL N15, 000

Why your application was declined

According to a message seen by InfomediaNG, your loan was declined because of the new directive by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) regarding risk management.

“Please be informed that we are aware of the messages been circulated by NIRSAL microfinance bank informing some of you that your loan application has been declined because of “Risk acceptance criteria”, Nirsal said in an email

So, what’s next after AGSMEIS  Loan Decline Message?

If you are one of the hundreds of applicants who received the message, don’t lose hope because you can still get up to N3, 000,000.
