Interest rates on SME loans in late 2024 and beginning of 2025 converged a lot. While in previous years, the rates varied a lot depending on the size of the loan, those differences were significantly smaller by January 2025. Loans of over one million have had the lowest interest rates in the past couple of years, but in 2009 they reached a peak at over five percent. SMEs, or mkb (an abbreviation of midden- en kleinbedrijf) in Dutch, are a big provider for the economy in the Netherlands, as they are the second-largest type of business enterprise present in the country.
