On Monday, Chancellor Rishi Sunak announced that small firms will get access to 100% taxpayer-backed loans, acknowledging concerns that existing coronavirus rescue schemes were slow to respond to applications.
Starting next week, the new scheme offers loans of up to £50,000 payable within days of applying. Self-certification applications will be made online and no capital or interest repayments will be due for one year.
