> Application ProcessIf you wish to discuss the possibility of applying for a loan, or have any questions on the process, please telephone the Loan Funds Manager. We will provide a loan application form which details all the supporting information required which must include a Business Plan and a set of financial forecasts. In normal circumstances we expect all applicants in a start-up situation, or who have been trading less than 12 months, to work with a local Business Adviser in the preparation of the Business Plan and forecasts. A letter of support from the Business Adviser is required. If the Loan Funds Manager is satisfied with the completeness of the information requested, you will be invited to present your application to a loan fund panel. The Panel meets monthly and approval can only be given after a decision has been reached. Availability of loan proceeds may take up to 2-3 weeks following a successful presentation.
