Details

Measures were introduced during 2020 to support businesses affected by COVID-19 such as loans, grants and tax allowances.

The Bounce Back loan scheme helped small and medium-sized businesses to borrow between £2,000 and £50,000 at a low interest rate, guaranteed by the Government.

This guide describes when you should begin to repay that loan, and what can happen to you and your company if the loan is not repaid.
