UK widens access to export loans as post-Brexit transition ends
(Reuters, London, 7 December 2020) Britain’s government said on Monday it would offer a wider range of loan guarantees to promote exports as part of a drive to boost overseas sales following the country’s departure from the European Union, its biggest foreign market. Lenders will receive a state guarantee for 80% of the money they lend to companies to support exports, up to 25 million pounds per business. The guarantees will be available to support working capital and other general costs, and will not be tied to specific export contracts, which was usually the case under previous schemes underwritten by export credit body UK Export Finance.
