Chancellor extends Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme

Chancellor Rishi Sunak announced he has extended CBILS in a bid to continue supporting businesses during the pandemic.

Applications must now be with funders by 30th November 2020. You can have several CBILS facilities to support your business, including:

  • Asset Finance
  • Invoice Finance
  • Business Loan
  • Asset Refinance

After Monday 30th November there will not be any more opportunities to apply for CBILS facilities as the Government will be launching a new scheme. If it is anything like the furlough transition, we would advise that you make the most of this opportunity and apply now.

Key features of CBILS include:

  • No capital, interest, or fees paid in first 12 months (in most cases)
  • Interest and fees in the first year are covered by the Government
  • No Personal Guarantees or other security required (up to £250,000)
  • Competitive rates

You can use multiple CBILS up to a total value of £5m for business loans, machinery, plant, commercial vehicle and equipment finance, refinance and restructuring of existing assets and associated debt, Invoice Finance and acquisitions / MBOs.

Applications must be received by funders before 30th November 2020 and facilities used within one month of acceptance for loans and six months for assets.
