Interview with Daniel Szczechowski, Head of Financial Instruments Unit, Ministry of Development Fund and Regional Policy.

The ERDF-powered Biznesmax with a simple first-loss portfolio guarantee is supporting the development of innovative entrepreneurs as well as green projects in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Poland. The instrument is combined with an interest rate subsidy. It was able to quickly adapt to changing circumstances by using the new regulatory flexibilities of the Coronavirus Response Investment Initiative (CRII) and Coronavirus Response Investment Initiative Plus (CRII Plus).
