Our business loans

  • Fixed Rate Lending

    Fixed Rate Loans provide certainty as your loan repayments will not increase if interest rates rise during your fixed period. However, if interest rates fall during your fixed term period you will not benefit as your repayment amount will not decrease.

  • Variable Rate Lending

    If interest rates fall during the term of your loan, the amount you pay will decrease.
    However, if interest rates rise, your repayments will also increase which may impact the affordability of the loan.

Customer Stories

Briggate Dental

“I like the fact that Unity Trust Bank helps people who help other people. Dentistry is a business but we’re also helping people with their teeth and self-esteem.

"Some lenders just see things from a business point of view, but Unity are very supportive of what we’re trying to achieve. I also like the personal service they offer.”

James Cooper
Briggate Dental

Broom Community Pharmacy

"I had heard that Unity Trust Bank helped businesses that support local communities. After my initial meeting with Relationship Manager, Scott, I felt confident in his ability to guide me through my first pharmacy acquisition. Scott’s communication and timely advice assisted in keeping all parties involved in the lead up to successfully finalising the deal on time.

"I’m delighted to work with Unity as their values are very similar to mine; I’m also trying to help the local community and offer more services to those in need."

Clare Brogan
Broom Community Pharmacy

Canopy Housing

"Mike and the team have been incredibly supportive throughout this process. It is always a squeeze getting innovative projects like this over the line. Having a supportive banking partner like Unity who believe in what we are trying to do is crucial."

David Nugent

Hazel Tree Montessori Nursery

“I’m delighted to refinance with Unity. They are a very good fit for my portfolio from a social marketing side. Other banks were interested, but the whole bureaucracy of asking for something and it taking six months to sort out put me off. I like the old-fashioned way of being able to speak to someone and it getting done immediately.”

Danielle Hignett
Hazel Tree Montessori Nursery

Little Learners

“When my loan agreement came up for renewal, I decided to switch to Unity as it gave my business the ability to grow at the pace I want. Unity offers a new concept in banking – it’s entrepreneurial, has good ethical grounding and an appetite for things that are relevant in the marketplace.”
