The myriad of relief options are not too well disclosed and it seems there is uncertainty about what is on the table and what businesses can expect in terms of financial assistance.

1) Debt Relief Finance Scheme
2) Business Growth/Resilience Facility

According to this document, an application has to be completed and can be found here https://smmesa.gov.za/images/COVID-1...cation-BR1.pdf
So does this mean that the financial relief offered will be loans from SEDA or SEFA at a reduced interest rate? No non-repayable grants to assist through the lockdown period and the months thereafter when the impact of the lockdown is going to linger?
