IMGC ties up with Bank of India to offer mortgage guarantee-backed home loan products

India Mortgage Guarantee Corporation (IMGC) has announced its strategic partnership with Bank of India (BOI) to offer mortgage guarantee-backed home loan products.

“This collaboration will focus on salaried and self-employed home loan customers in the affordable housing segment.
