Your common questions answered

What are the different kinds of business loan available in the UK?

UK business loans can broadly be divided into two main categories: unsecured and secured.

Unsecured business loans do not require personal or company assets to be provided as collateral, instead relying on the personal guarantee of business owners, shareholders, or company executives. Secured business loans are backed by an asset, typically enabling access to larger sums of funding or lower rates of interest.

The optimal business loan for you hinges on factors such as desired loan amount, asset base, and personal preferences. Recognizing the uniqueness of each business, Fleximize offers a range of loan options, including both unsecured and secured loans, with added flexibility such as repayment holidays, top-ups, and penalty-free early repayments.

While traditional loans are appropriate for most customers, the UK also offers a plethora of other funding avenues, including:

• Equity funding options like angel investment or venture capitalism
• Crowdfunding or peer-to-peer lending
• Specialized business loans tailored to industries such as construction, retail, e-commerce, and manufacturing

Even if you're unsure about whether a traditional term loan aligns with your business's needs, we would invite you to engage in a no-obligation discussion with our team. We take immense pride in our expertise and adaptability. And even if our offerings aren't a perfect fit, we have an extensive network of partner lenders, ensuring we can explore all of market solutions to find the ideal fit for your business.

How long can I borrow for?

Our UK business loans are available over terms of 3 to 36 months on an unsecured basis, or 3 to 60 months on a secured basis.

How long does the process take?

We can usually provide you with a decision within 48 hours of applying, and once you’ve signed the documentation, we can typically deposit the same day we approve your application.

Your success is our priority, and we're committed to making your experience as swift and seamless as possible!

I am in Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland, can I apply?

UK business loans are accessible nationwide, catering to both limited and non-limited businesses of all scales. Whether you operate in England, Scotland, Wales, or Northern Ireland, our services are available to support the financial needs of your business.
