Smart PEL launched on 17.10.23 is a revamping of the Plan Epargne Logement (PEL) which was launched in November 1988, with the main purpose to encourage the general public, to save for the purpose of acquiring a house in the future. The amount contributed in the Smart PEL coupled with a loan from MHC (according to eligibility) will constitute a capital to finance the housing projects of customers.
