Regional authorities offered Wildberries sellers affected by the attacks the option of taking out microloans

Authorities in at least six Russian regions, as well as annexed Crimea, have offered Wildberries sellers the option of taking out a microloan. This was described as a “support measure” for goods lost after Ukrainian Armed Forces attacks on warehouses, Verstka writes.

A list of regional support measures for affected sellers appeared on the “RWB Participation” platform. They were prepared by the authorities of 11 Russian regions, as well as Crimea, though not all of them offered microloans.

For example, the Novosibirsk Region microcredit organization also offered entrepreneurs the option of taking out a microloan ranging from 30,000 to 5 million rubles at a rate of 7.25% to 14%, depending on the type of loan and whether they have property that can be pledged as collateral. In Rostov Region, entrepreneurs will be able to receive from 100,000 to 5 million rubles for a term of three years.

In annexed Crimea, businesses are being offered concessional microloans at a rate below the Central Bank’s, as well as no penalties, no fines, and no claims on microloans for up to half a year in 2026. Similar support measures were introduced in Leningrad and Oryol regions.
