What are the different types of Business Overdraft?

Secured Overdraft

An overdraft backed by collateral, such as property or other assets.

Secured Overdraft

A secured overdraft requires the business to pledge assets as security, reducing risk for the lender and often resulting in lower interest rates or higher limits for the borrower.

Unsecured Overdraft

An overdraft not backed by any collateral, based on creditworthiness.

Unsecured Overdraft

An unsecured overdraft does not require collateral but usually comes with higher interest rates and lower limits, as the lender bears more risk based on the borrower’s financial health.

Revolving Overdraft

A flexible facility where the overdraft limit is restored as repayments are made.

Revolving Overdraft

With a revolving overdraft, the business can borrow, repay, and borrow again up to an agreed limit, providing ongoing access to funds as needed without needing to reapply.
