Small businesses affected by the Coronavirus outbreak are eligible for ‘bounce back loans’ under the new government initiative. Launching on 4 May, the 100% government backed loan scheme will help SMEs borrow between £2,000 & £50,000.
The government will guarantee 100% of the loan and there won’t be any fees or interest to pay for the first 12 months.
Loan terms will be up to 6 years. No repayments will be due during the first 12 months. The government will work with lenders to agree a low rate of interest for the remaining period of the loan.
The scheme will be delivered through a network of accredited lenders.
