What is flexible & short term?

Short-term business finance provides funds over three to 24 months for needs that won’t wait — bulk stock, a contract, a seasonal dip or a cash-flow gap. Options include short-term loans and revolving credit facilities, where you draw and repay as needed and pay interest only on what you use.

Flexible & Short Term: common questions

What is a revolving credit facility?

A pre-approved credit limit your business can draw on, repay and draw again — similar to an overdraft but usually more flexible and not tied to your main bank.

Are short-term loans more expensive?

The headline rate is often higher than for long-term finance, but total interest can be lower because the term is shorter. Always compare the total cost of borrowing.
