Natural Disaster Relief Loan - Small Businesses

Small business operators directly affected by a declared natural disaster may be eligible for a low interest loan of up to $130,000 to support recovery.

The objective of the program is to provide a concessional interest rate loan to eligible small businesses to assist with the costs associated with essential working capital for up to 12 months from the date of the declared natural disaster to continue business operations until normal income resumes or until the next major income is received and/or to replace and/or to repair property damaged as a result of the declared natural disaster. 

Natural Disaster Relief Loans are only provided to eligible small business operators following the declaration of a natural disaster by the NSW Government.
