After less than 1,000 CBIL Loans being granted on the first 130,000 applications - BIG changes are afoot with the CBIL Scheme. 

Key points to note for those in need of a loan to trade through the next 2-3 months:

1) Changes have been announced to take effect from Monday 6th April BUT need to be applied retrospectively to any loan offer made since 23rd March 2020. Whilst this is welcome it will mean that banks will now need to spend time and resources to amend previous offers and applications and could delay the cash being available even further.

2) For facilities under £250k, personal guarantees will no longer be permitted to be requested by the lender.

3) There is now no requirement to look at other commercial loans. This should streamline applications for banks.
