Garantiqa Hitelgarancia Zrt. II. Simplified process (‘packages’) • surety guarantees undertaken on basis of bilateral agreements with banks • to a big number of smaller amount, standardized loans • preliminary analysis of risk management and lending practices ofthe financial institution • exact definition of the product terms and conditions • decision making within three days
Counter-guarantee from the central budget • Annual law on the central budget defines the rate, • cap amount and maximum of year-end guarantee commitments (2011: 70%, HUF 20.9 billion, • HUF 500 billion). Netting is not possible. • Ministry of Finance decree 48/2002.

The effect of the crisis on the guarantee institution • deteriorating average portfolio quality • growing number and rate of redemptions • • higher provisions + smaller yield • • negative effect on P&L • Main objective: stimulation of bank finance • Expectation of owners: • to increase the portfolio • long term sustainability after temporary losses
How do we support SMEs during the crisis? • Updating of the bilateral agreements • guaranteeing overdraft • guarantees to restructured financing • guarantees to Hungarian Development Bank-refinanced loans • Exploitation of EU possibilities (JEREMIE, CIP, • notifications under new legislation, influence on the • enterprise policy and on the competition rules, etc.), • lobbying through AECM and national authorities
Further possibilities • Capital constraints: • Capital adequacy is sound (> 20%) but: • smaller yields to be compensated • excessive leverage ratio to be avoided • drastic fee increase to be avoided (strong market and CRD constraints) • Suggested measures: • strengthening the counter-guarantee background • (JEREMIE funds, EIF / CIP) • subordinated debt: IFIs
