Supplementary loans

Supplementary loans are intended for companies that have suffered significant loss of income due to the epidemic. They are most suitable for average and large companies, and can be for an amount of up to ISK 1,200 million. The state will guarantee up to 70% of the loan.

Subsidies for companies that have to close

Companies that are required to close for business due to the ban on public gathering can apply for a subsidy from the state.
