Fixed-term advance

A fixed-term advance is a business loan that offers a stable interest rate throughout the term of the loan. It can help your company meet its cash-flow and spending needs.

Highlights

  • The amount of the fixed-term advance is paid into your BCV current account. You can repay the loan in one go at the end of the term or roll it over.
  • The fixed interest rate is set in accordance with your financial situation and any loan guarantee provided. The frequency of interest payments will depend on the term of the loan.
  • When interest rates are low, a fixed-term advance may be a good option to finance certain expenses by your company.
