What is an Unsecured Loan?
An unsecured business loan allows you to secure funds for your business without providing collateral, relying on creditworthiness and repayment ability. Providing quick capital access without risking valuable assets, unsecured loans offer flexibility for businesses on the move.
Unsecured loans often come with higher interest rates and shorter repayment terms compared to secured loans. However, this doesn’t necessarily mean the loan is more expensive. Unsecured loans offer businesses a quick and flexible way to access funding without the potential risk of losing valuable assets in case of default.
What Can An Unsecured Loan Be Used For?
The beauty of an unsecured business loan is that it can provide your business with flexible funding to suit your financial needs. The possibilities are practically endless, but here are some examples:
- Cover working capital needs, including payroll.
- Finance business expansion and enable exploration of new markets.
- Invest in technology upgrades or new equipment.
- Manage cash flow during seasonal fluctuations.
- Address emergency expenses and unforeseen challenges.
- Streamline existing debts through consolidation.
- Seize business opportunities and innovative ventures.

How much can I borrow on an unsecured business loan?
Every lender will have a different highest amount they will be willing to part with on an unsecured loan. Here are some examples on the amounts you can borrow: :
Loans Based on Turnover
Many unsecured loan amounts are based on your annual turnover, usually capped at 40%. That means that if you turnover £1 million per annum, you could borrow up to £400,000.
Loans Based on Monthly Revenue
Some unsecured business loans will use your monthly revenue as the figure to base your loan upon, usually capped at 1.5x**. If your MRR is £80,000 in this case, your maximum loan amount would be £120,000.
Loans Based on Credit Score
Your credit score will impact the amount of money you can borrow – even if your business financials are in top shape. For example, if your turnover is £1 million per annum, but your credit score isn’t up to scratch, you wouldn’t be able to borrow as much as someone with a solid score.
Loans Based on Personal Credit
Personal credit of shareholders can impact the amount that you can borrow on an unsecured business loan. For example, if your majority shareholder has over £2 million in personal assets, it could improve the credibility of your loan application if you’re applying for less than that amount.
