Frequently Asked Questions About Fairbridge Finance
- What is a business loan?
A business loan in the UK provides capital to your company, repaid over an agreed term with interest. Loans can be secured or unsecured for growth, cash flow, equipment, and more.
- Can start-ups get a business loan?
Yes. We work with lenders who support early-stage businesses. They assess your business plan, proposal viability, and directors’ financial profile.
- How much can my business borrow?
Loan amounts depend on turnover, profitability, credit profile, and purpose. Our whole-of-market approach identifies realistic options.
- How quickly can a business loan be arranged?
Smaller facilities can be arranged within days; larger or complex loans may take longer. We provide realistic timelines upfront.
- What is the difference between a secured and unsecured business loan?
A secured business loan is backed by an asset, such as property or equipment, which reduces lender risk and typically results in lower interest rates. An unsecured loan requires no security but may carry higher rates. Our team advises on the most suitable structure based on your business profile and requirements.
- Does credit history affect approval?
A strong credit profile helps, but poor credit is not always a barrier. Specialist lenders consider applications individually.
