(10) To support mobility, equity and study excellence, the Union should establish a European loan guarantee facility to enable students, regardless of their social background, to take their Masters degree in another participating country. This facility should be available to financial institutions which agree to offer loans for Masters' studies in other participating countries on favourable terms for the students. Due to the complex nature of loan guarantee facilities, the system shall be voluntary and therefore Member States must decide at the national level whether to participate in the facility.
