Thiruvananthapuram, Nov 5 (PTI) Electronic platform TReDS, which facilitates in financing or discounting trade receivables for MSMEs, has proved a reliable supportive mechanism for the small enterprises to tide over interim financial crunch and sustain themselves, state Industries Minister P Rajeeve said on Sunday.

Already, a large number of ventures have registered themselves with TReDS, and MSMEs especially should make use of this facility," the minister said.
The state government has bolstered the MSME ecosystem in the state through path-breaking policy initiatives and projects that have yielded good results, he said.
S Harikishore, the Director, DI&C, said TReDS has already proved a helpful mechanism for MSMEs which often run into constraints due to delay in getting financial returns from the market for their products and services.
