Can you tell me what government small business loan interest rates are?

The interest rates of business loan programmes offered by the UK government change depending on the programme and, potentially, the applicant’s specific circumstances. If you want a government loan you should check the details of each programme you are considering before making up your mind. Most have low interest rates, some have no interest, and some do not require repayment at all. If you are considering a loan, make note of the qualifications as well, and the terms, repayment schedule, and uses. Most have better terms than bank loans, and have different qualifications too. So, even if you have been rejected by the bank when seeking funding before, you may have a chance. Find out more by completing the form on our web site.
