Reply:
1Sari Financing Corp. was organized to primarily provide working capital financing in the form of merchandise or supply chain store credits to microenterprises such as sari sari stores, neighborhood bakeries, neighborhood eateries, and the like, that have no access to credit from traditional financial institutions. The working capital credit that 1Sari provides is considered microlending. Aside from financing supply chain needs of these microenterprises, 1Sari is envisioned to provide these microenterprises valuable entrepreneurial and financial literacy & guidance, and a disciplined approach to credit.
2. Are you the owner of this business? If no, what is your position/designation in the business, if applicable.
Reply: I am the Corporate Secretary.
