Recovery Loan Scheme (RLS)
Eligibility criteria for the government-backed lending scheme

What is RLS?

The Recovery Loan Scheme (RLS) launched on 6 April 2021 and supports access to finance for UK businesses as they recover and grow following the Covid-19 pandemic.

RLS aims to help businesses affected by Covid-19 and can be used for business purposes, including, managing cashflow, investment and growth. It is designed to support businesses that can afford to take out additional finance for these purposes. Businesses who have taken out a CBILS, CLBILS or BBLS facility are able to access the new scheme.

Businesses who have taken out a Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme (CBILS), Coronavirus Large Business Interruption Loan Scheme (CLBILS) or Bounce Back Loan Scheme (BBLS) facility are able to access the new scheme. The scheme will run until 31 December 2021, subject to review.

The Recovery Loan Scheme is designed to improve the terms on offer to your business. If we can offer you the choice of a commercial loan on better terms, without requiring the guarantee provided by the RLS, then we will do so.
