The new Coronavirus Large Business Interruption Loan Scheme (CLBILS) will provide a government guarantee of 80% to enable banks to make loans of up to £25m to firms with an annual turnover of between £45m and £500m. This will give banks the confidence to lend to many more businesses which are impacted by coronavirus. Facilities backed by a guarantee under CLBILS will be offered at commercial rates of interest.
How do I access it?
The new scheme will launch later this month and it will be available through a range of accredited lenders. Once the scheme has launched, there is likely to be a big demand for facilities – businesses should consider applying via the lender’s website in the first instance.
