What is a Revolving Credit Facility?

A Revolving Credit Facility (RCF) is a financing solution that allows a Borrower or a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) to fund lending activities. It involves a single facility agreement with Conister Bank, utilising the borrower's own paperwork and systems for underlying agreements. In the case of an SPV structure, these agreements are transferred through a Sale Purchase Agreement (SPA). This setup facilitates continual access to funds, enabling borrowers to manage cash flow efficiently and maintain their operational systems.
