Revolving Credit Facilities

A revolving credit facility gives an approved business a reusable limit: funds can be drawn, repaid and drawn again subject to the agreement.

NBS Finance is a broker and introducer, not a lender. An enquiry does not guarantee an offer.

Quick answer

When this may be worth discussing

01

Seasonal purchasing or supplier payments

03

A contingency buffer where usage may vary

Provider assessment

Information that helps produce a useful answer

Providers set their own rates, charges, fees, security and terms. Clear evidence helps distinguish a viable route from an unsuitable application.

  • Cash-flow history and expected use of the limit
  • Existing borrowing and available security
  • How quickly drawings are expected to be repaid
Important: A revolving facility can be flexible, but unused-limit fees, draw fees, review terms and provider discretion should be checked.

Questions to answer before proceeding

Question Why it matters
What exact outcome must the finance achieve? It keeps the proposal tied to a commercial purpose.
What is the full cost and repayment profile? Compare fees, security, frequency, total repayable amount and exit terms.
What happens if income arrives later than expected? A downside view tests whether repayments remain manageable.
Which documents or conditions remain outstanding? Approval, completion and payment are separate stages.

Common questions

Revolving Credit Facilities FAQs

Is this automatically available?

Does NBS Finance set the rate or terms?

Can an enquiry affect credit?

A provider may carry out business or director checks. Ask which searches will be made before a full application.
