Sagi Balasha, the CEO of Ogen, formerly known as the Israel Free Loan Association (IFLA) (Courtesy) According to a report by the Finance Ministry, small businesses are still struggling to get loans via the banks. According to the data, Ogen said in a statement, businesses that generate up to NIS 10 million ($3.1 million) in revenue, “which are the beating heart of Israel’s workforce and generate more than 35% of GDP,” actually received 0.6% less bank credit in the last three months of 2020 as compared to 2019. Formerly known as the Israel Free Loan Association (IFLA), Ogen was founded in the early 1990s by the late Eliezer Jaffe, an immigrant from the US. The nonprofit provides both interest-free and low-interest loans, as well as financial guidance, to people, small businesses and nonprofits in Israel that are ill-served by the financial sector, which sees them as too small and too risky to get financing.
