The government will allocate more than 2.5 billion rubles for education.
The relevant order was signed by Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin, the Cabinet said. The funds are provided in the federal budget and will allow subsidizing more than 214,000 preferential loans for university students.
At the direction of the President of Russia, state-supported educational loans have been issued since 2020 at an annual rate of 3%. They can be taken out by young people from the age of 14 to obtain secondary vocational or higher education. The state compensates banks for the difference between the market rate and the concessional rate.
Repayment of the principal begins nine months after graduation, and the loan can be repaid within 15 years. Early repayment without a fee is also provided.
"The President emphasized that young people should have the opportunity to obtain a profession through an educational loan on the most favorable terms," Mikhail Mishustin said at a meeting with deputy prime ministers.
