Types of Business Overdrafts Available

Secured Business Overdraft

Backed by business assets, secured overdrafts are suitable for firms with collateral and usually provide access to higher borrowing limits at lower rates.

With amounts from £10,000 to £500,000 and annual reviews, this facility suits businesses with valuable assets and good credit history. Applications involve submitting financial and asset details, credit checks, and asset valuations. Sectors like manufacturing and retail often benefit from access to larger overdraft amounts and competitive interest rates, typically ranging from 3% to 7% over the base rate.

Unsecured Business Overdraft

Unsecured overdrafts are based on trading history and credit strength, offering fast access to funding for everyday business needs without asset security, similar to unsecured business loans.

This overdraft type caters to SMEs with a positive trading record and solid credit score, usually offering between £5,000 and £250,000. Decision times are often one to two weeks, and interest rates fall between 6% and 12% over base rate. The process involves reviewing your financial documents and passing a credit check, making it suitable for consultancies, food services, and smaller import/export businesses seeking straightforward cash flow support.

Revolving Credit Facility

Provides continuous access to agreed funds with repayments replenishing the balance, giving long-term flexibility for working capital and growth.
