An aithnich thu gin dhiubh seo?
- Raw-material orders to pay upfront before a production run can ship
- A machine or piece of tooling failing and halting the line mid-shift
- A large purchase order needing you to scale up before the customer pays on 60-day terms
- Covering a quiet period between contracts while overheads keep running
If so, a Credicorp short-term business loan could help you bridge that gap.

Borrowing is expensive relative to bank lending. Only borrow if the cost is less than the gap it closes. Total cost capped at 100% of principal — you will never repay more than double. There is no personal guarantee; lending is to the company.

- Can a manufacturing company apply for a Credicorp business loan?
- Yes. Credicorp lends to UK incorporated limited companies and LLPs in manufacturing and light industry — small-batch, specialist and contract manufacturers. Production volume and market are not pricing factors.
- Do companies in this sector need to provide a personal guarantee?
- No. All Credicorp lending is to the company — the UK limited company or LLP — as the sole obligor. There is no personal guarantee and no personal credit search on any director or shareholder.
- How quickly can a company in this sector get a lending decision from Credicorp?
- Applications are reviewed as they arrive during business hours. Credicorp aims to make a credit decision the same working day in most cases. Once approved, funds typically reach your company account the same day.
Credicorp lends to UK limited companies and LLPs under the body-corporate exemption (Articles 60B and 60L of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Regulated Activities) Order 2001). This is not consumer lending. The Financial Ombudsman Service and Financial Services Compensation Scheme do not apply. Full details: regulatory status and responsible lending policy.
