What is a secured loan?

A secured loan is a loan that is secured against assets of value. For a business, these are usually properties or premises. There are different types of secured business loans, including:

Variable Rate Secured Loans

Variable rate secured loans have an interest rate that tracks the movement of the Bank of England base rate. As this base rate moves up and down, so will your rate.

Fixed Rate Secured Loans

Fixed rate secured loans feature an interest rate that is fixed over the term of the loan. Fixed repayments help with budgeting and knowing exactly what you will need to pay each month, allowing you to plan with confidence.
