CBILS & Bounce Back Loan Extension; Loan Support Figures; and Unintended Consequences
This episode is devoted to developments within the CBILS and Bounce Back Loan government support schemes. Given the ongoing economic problems, we kick off with a look at the Chancellor’s announcement that the CBILS and Bounce Back Loan application deadlines have been extended. Is it time to re-look at your borrowing requirements?
We look at the latest figures from HM Treasury on how much has been borrowed from the two main support schemes. The amount of money borrowed is a significant sum and signals a tough 2021 for many businesses when it comes to repaying these loans.
To close this Bulletin, we consider some of the unintended consequences of the CBILS and Bounce Back Loan schemes in term of future availability of finance and capacity for businesses to borrow.
