The Alternate Minister of Economy and Finance, Nikos Papathanassis, signed an amending decision to increase the resources of the Entrepreneurship Fund III (TEPIX III) adding an additional €200 million to further bolster SMEs and to expand access to financing for SMEs. This additional financing is allocated equally to the two branches of TEPIX III: the Loans Fund and the Guarantee Fund, thereby increasing the available budget of each Fund by €100 million.
