SIDBI and TransUnion CIBIL launch MSMESaksham

In order to support the revival of India’s economy and strengthen Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), Small Industries Development Bank of India (SIDBI) in association with TransUnion CIBIL has launched MSMESaksham – a comprehensive financial education and knowledge platform for MSMEs. This unique one-stop knowledge portal will guide MSMEs seeking seamless and quick access to finance while also supporting entrepreneurs towards managing their credit obligations.

MSMESaksham aims to guide MSMEs across their credit lifecycle, from availing credit to start and grow their businesses, to managing credit lines to sustain and build structural strength of the business, as well as ensuring timely closures and renewals of credit facilities. Focused on two key pillars of financial knowledge and access to credit, MSMESaksham leverages SIDBI’s extensive network of MSMEs as well as information and insights from TransUnion CIBIL to create an educational ecosystem that can help build structurally strong MSMEs.
