Businesses and self-employed affected by emergencies: 30 days to access guarantees for financing provided to third parties

The resolution publishes the terms of the first phase of the guarantee line to cover financing provided by financial entities to businesses and self-employed affected by civil protection emergencies. This mechanism is regulated by art. 2 of RDL 12/2025 and art. 22 of RDL 5/2026, allowing affected parties to access guarantees on behalf of the State within 30 days of emergency notification. A key condition is that the financing was granted by financial entities to third parties.

In 2 key points

  1. Access to state-backed guarantees within 30 days of an emergency (art. 22 del Real Decreto-ley 5/2026, de 17 de febrero)
  2. Financing granted by financial institutions to third parties is a prerequisite (art. 2 del Real Decreto-ley 12/2025, de 28 de octubre)

How it affects those involved

For companies and the self-employed affected by civil protection emergencies, direct access to state-backed guarantees is opened, reducing financial risks. Financial institutions can obtain guarantees for loans granted to third parties. Advisors must verify whether the case meets the emergency criteria and the specific type of financing. The Ministry of Economy and the Official Credit Institute manage the process and define the coverage limits.
