Honesty is the best policy

Honesty is the Best Policy

Dishonesty among some loan applicants is another of the challenges facing the SLB. There is absolutely no need for this as every area of the application form is thoroughly investigated by our vetting personnel before an applicant is even considered eligible for a loan.

The SLB’s policy is to disqualify anyone who is found guilty of fabricating information on the application form from accessing SLB financial assistance for two years, i.e. – the year of the offence and the following year. However in a situation where offenders wish to appeal they may write to the appeals committee for review within the two-year period. After two years, such individuals may apply directly to the SLB board to have his/her situation reviewed.
