Recovery Loan Scheme (RLS)
Launched on 6 April 2021, the Recovery Loan Scheme (RLS) helps UK businesses access finance as they recover from the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic.
The scheme can help you if you have a legitimate business need for the finance, such as boosting cash flow, increasing investment, and growing your business. Unlike previous RLS applications, you do not need to confirm if your business has been directly impacted by Covid-19.
If you have already taken out a Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme (CBILS), Coronavirus Large Business Interruption Loan Scheme (CLBILS) or Bounce Back Loan Scheme (BBLS) facility after 1st August 2022, you are able to access the Recovery Loan Scheme however the amount you can borrow may be reduced.
It is important to note that with the RLS you are liable to pay interest payments and fees from the outset.
