On 20 March 2020, the FCA published a web page providing information as regards business loans to which the Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme applies. The FCA has a continued interest in firms lending in a way that does not lead to harm to consumers (including small businesses protected by the consumer credit regime). Where a customer is applying for a business loan to which the Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme applies, the fact that the customer may, at the time of the application, be temporarily experiencing exceptional financial pressures does not mean that the firm is prevented by CONC 5.2A.5R from making the loan.
