Types of GEEP loan in Nigeria RIGHT NOW

The following are the collateral-free loan schemes under Government Enterprise and Empowerment Program (GEEP) powered by Federal Government’s Bank of Industry (BOI):

1. Tradermoni
2. Marketmoni
3. Farmermoni

All the above loans are part of FG’s GEEP loan under the Social Intervention Programme (SIP)

Difference between GEEP marketmoni and tradermoni

While tradermoni gives petty traders access to loan up to N50,000, you can access up to N100,000 through GEEP MarketMoni.

The loan, which only attracts a five per cent one-time administrative charge, is repayable within a period of six months, with two weeks grace period.
