The Namibia Special Risks Insurance Association (NASRIA) and Bank Windhoek have joined forces to make access to funding for women, youth, and SMEs easy through a Credit Guarantee Scheme facility amounting to N$50 million.

Access to finance has always been a problem or limited to many business-aspiring youths and women, hence the agreement.

The credit scheme provides vital financial support to budding entrepreneurs, aiming to stimulate innovation and be a catalyst for job creation.

Landless People's Movement (LPM) MP Utaara Mootu has drawn attention to the critical issues of housing shortages and funding gaps in Namibia.

In her motion, Mootu highlighted the pressing challenges the nation faces in providing adequate housing for its citizens.
