Government support for Singapore SMEs

The Singapore government recently announced a S$900 million support package for businesses to manage higher operating costs amid ongoing global uncertainties. Key measures for SMEs:

  • Enhanced Enterprise Financing Scheme (EFS) – September 2026 to March 2027: Government risk-share on the EFS–SME working capital loan rises from 50% to 70%.
  • SME Cash Grant – November 2026: S$500 per local employee, with a maximum of S$2,500 per company. Sole proprietorships, partnerships, and LLPs with at least one local business owner receive a flat S$500.

The DBS Business Loan can be used alongside this government-assisted financing to give your business greater flexibility.
