“We hope the risk appetite from banks as well as companies can be restored and thus result in optimism to conduct activities,” Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati told a streamed press conference on Wednesday, noting banks had been cautious giving out loans despite having ample liquidity. The loan guarantee scheme is an expansion of a previously announced initiative to help small businesses recover from the impact of the pandemic.
