What is a unsecured business loan?
An unsecured business loan offers a quick and straightforward way to access funds for your small business in the UK without the need to pledge assets like property, equipment, or machinery as collateral. It’s an ideal choice if you prefer not to secure your existing assets against the loan.
How do unsecured business loans work?
Unsecured business loans offer quick access to upfront capital without collateral. These loans come in various terms to accommodate different businesses, providing fast funding, often within the same day. Repayments occur in monthly or quarterly installments within a set timeframe, with options for short-term or medium/long-term loans. Some loans may offer early repayment without fees.
What documents do I need?
- Turnover and profit (vs. loan amount)
- Bank statements
- Filed accounts
- Trading history
- Payment history (e.g. late payments, county
- court judgments)
- Directors’ histories (lenders may ask for a
personal guarantee) - Forecasts and business plans
- Your clients/customers.
Pros of unsecured loans
- You can access funds quickly and simply, compared to other types of lending.
- You don’t need to put up any assets as security.
- You can plan your repayments – fixed monthly payments over an agreed time period.
- You will only pay a small upfront cost (if at all).
Cons of unsecured loans
Personal guarantee
You may need to provide a personal guarantee as a director, putting your assets at risk if the business fails to repay. Seek professional advice before agreeing to this commitment.
