Are grant programmes or loans better for a United Kingdom business?

The grant or loans programme that is going to be best for your United Kingdom small business is going to depend on timing as well as other factors. These may include such things as the type of small business you are opening and even factors related to your gender or heritage. Loans often have fewer esoteric terms for application as well as fewer restrictions on spending, whereas a grant will have the benefit of not requiring repayment. UKStartups.org has the Startup Assessment Tool, designed to help you find the best funding option for your small business needs.
