How much can my business borrow?

With business loans, as with personal loans, repayments are made monthly across the term of the product. E.g. 12 months, 24 months etc.

Lenders will consider some of the following criteria:

  • A business must show it can make a profit

  • Typically up to 25% of your last year annual turnover

  • Cashflow to cover the business repayments by at least double

For example, if your business took a £120,000 loan for 2 years then it would need to repay £5,000 plus interest every month. This means that your business would need to generate significantly more than £5,000 each month in cash to comfortably afford that loan. This is what lenders are looking at when it comes to affordability.

This repayment must from the profit in your business (or free cashflow in technical speak) and come after different expenses you might have in the business have been deducted. This will include any existing repayments, dividends or periodic payments you might have.

Which lenders should I apply to?

The business loan and funding you can get will depend on which funding product you opt for, the lender you work with and the length of the term-loan. Your eligibility will also consider:

  • Your filed accounts, business profit and turnover 

  • Your business and personal credit history  

This information shows banks and lenders how your business is performing, its stability and the risk of borrowing to you.
