KATHMANDU: Nabil Bank launched the Skilled Migrant Entrepreneurship Loan Scheme. The bank launched the loan scheme in Kathmandu on Thursday.

The bank has launched a loan facility of up to 100 million rupees for expatriate Nepalis and their families who desire to conduct business in the nation. The bank has also set loan limits ranging from 1.5 million to 100 million rupees, which are divided into stages.

Chairman of the bank, Upendra Prasad Paudel, said that the bank has launched the Nabil Skilled Migrant Entrepreneurship Loan Scheme campaign to facilitate the youth who have returned from foreign employment. He stated that because Nepalis have brought a variety of skills and capital from overseas, if they can find work and start their own businesses, the country's economic position will improve.
