Orange mobile responsive banner from permanent tsb

At permanent tsb we always strive to do more and to actively support businesses in the community to grow, develop and improve. That’s why we partnered with the Strategic Banking Corporation of Ireland (SBCI) to provide the SBCI Future Growth Loan Scheme (FGLS). Our partnership with the SBCI has enabled us to support customers with longer repayment terms, lower interest rates and fewer security requirements. Please get in touch to discuss borrowing options by calling 0818 200 100 to make an appointment. The Scheme will run until 31st December 2022.

Eligibility

You need to confirm your eligibility for the FGLS through the SBCI website before applying for a loan and submitting this confirmation with your loan application.

The FGLS is open to sole traders, partnerships and companies whose businesses are established and operating in Ireland. Loans are available for most long-term investments and to businesses operating in most industry sectors but they are not available to undertakings in difficulty, e.g. bankruptcy or administration.

Visit SBCI Future Growth Loan Scheme for more information about the scheme.
