Line of credit

What it is, and how it repays

A line of credit gives you access to a fixed amount of capital that you draw on only when you need it. Think of it as a financial safety net: it sits there costing nothing until the day it earns its keep.

When you do draw on it, you can use it for almost any business need, and you pay for what you use rather than for the whole facility.

On the climb

Where on the climb it tends to fit

Business Line of Credit most often opens up for businesses at these 3 stages, though lenders decide case by case.

  1. 3
    Open ground · 3-5 yearsThe business has been through a few seasons and come out the other side. A facility that sits ready, rather than one lump sum, becomes a realistic ask.
  2. 4
    High ground · 6-9 yearsA long record is the strongest thing an application can carry. It is usually the stretch where a sizeable term loan for a second site or a large contract makes sense.
  3. 5
    The long view · 10+ yearsEstablished businesses are generally looked at for all six programmes, and for amounts toward the top of each range. The question becomes which shape suits the plan.
