OREANDA-NEWS. September 08, 2011. This summer Uniastrum client Eye Clinic LLC was judged the best innovative company in Bashkortostan in the latest regional round of the nationwide Business Success 2011 competition, reported the press-centre of Uniastrum Bank.

In June 2011 Uniastrum Bank granted Eye Clinic a loan of Rb 2.6 mn, repayable over 5 years, under its Sensible Credit for Small Business multi-program credit package. The credited funds were issued for enhancing the company’s day-to-day cash flows and in order to enable it to move ahead with targeted business development projects: opening a pharmacy outlet, completing the construction of a building front and car parking facilities, and buying equipment.

Eye Clinic LLC was established in 2010 by Olga Kanzaforova, who came up with the idea of opening a modern eye care center in Ufa after she developed a serious vision problem and was unable to find anybody qualified to help her anywhere in the city. Today Eye Clinic provides specialist ophthalmological services, specializing in the diagnosis and surgical treatment of eye diseases. The center’s work has been highly praised not only by its patients, but also by fellow professionals.

“Our success comes from the feeling of satisfaction we have after a successful day, week, or year. Our increasing number of patients testifies to the confidence our clinic enjoys,” Olga Kanzaforova explains. “Personally, I think that developing a business such as ours would be difficult without a loan. Fitting the center with new equipment and apparatus, putting in place new surgical technologies and new high-performance treatment solutions obviously require a fair size investment. Thanks to the credit made available by Uniastrum we were able to carry out important maintenance work, decorate our premises, purchase surgical equipment, and add new facilities for the benefit of patients and personnel alike.”

Sensible Credit for Small Business is an exclusive credit structuring kit that allows borrower enterprises, assisted by a Uniastrum loan officer, to put together an optimum business finance scheme. Conspicuous advantages offered by Sensible Credit include competitive rates, generous repayment periods, special terms for certain business sectors, and favorable terms for renegotiating loans with other banks. Becoming a Uniastrum customer couldn’t be easier. From August 1 to November 30, 2011, the Bank is running a special offer called “Sensible Money Management” for new business clients, enabling them to open a checking account and hook up to the Internet Bank Client network free of charge.
