Ghana Students Loan Trust Fund : Loan Defaulters
Loan Defaulters
The following beneficiaries of the Students Loan are due for repayment. The borrowers are in default of their monthly installments or have not started repayment of their loans.
We are therefore asking the under-listed borrowers to repay the loan in order for others to access the fund.
The Trust Fund will publish the names of these defaulters and their respective amounts in the National dailies if they fail to repay their loans on time. See the list here
Mode of Repayment
The modes of repayment of loans are as follows:
1. Periodic deductions from beneficiary’s salary by his or her employer.
2. Direct periodic payments to the SLTF by beneficiaries who are not employees of any organization (i.e. sole proprietorship, self employed etc)
3. Outright payment of total loan amount plus interest due.
