What types of business loans does BOQ offer?

New and existing customers can choose between five business loan products, from lines of credit to term loans and business overdrafts. Interest rates and repayment schedules differ depending on the product.

  • Overdraft. This loan type provides liquidity when you have limited access to your business's working capital. You can use the loan for any business-related purpose and you can also link this loan to a Business Visa debit card for easy access to your money.
  • Line of credit. This is a drawdown facility available with a minimum loan amount of $50,000. A variable interest rate applies and you can make interest-only or lump-sum payments. A monthly fee of $25 applies.
  • Term loan. This loan is available from a minimum of $200,000. You can borrow for a maximum of 30 years if the loan is secured with residential property (15 years maximum for non-residential or mixed security). You can make interest-only repayments up to a maximum of five years.
  • Commercial rate loan. This loan is suited to property purchases and investments and is available for a minimum of $500,000. You can choose an interest rate type for periods of one, two or three months. Application and monthly fees apply.
  • Debtor finance. This is similar to invoice factoring, with debtor finance letting you borrow against outstanding invoices. BOQ will finance 80% of the total value of the invoices within 24 hours with no security required.

What features are on offer with BOQ business loans?

If you're interested in applying for one of BOQ's business loans, here are some of the features to keep in mind.

  • Package option. If you apply for a term loan or a line of credit, you can package it with an Everyday Business or Business Management account in the Business First Lending Package. You will receive an interest rate discount of 0.15%, with an additional 0.85% discount if you add two optional products to the package.
  • Interest rates. Interest is charged monthly in arrears, except for the commercial loan where charge periods vary.
  • Property purchases. The commercial rate loan product is suited for business property purchases and is available for a minimum amount of $500,000. Interest rates vary based on the interest rate type and period, and you can make repayments over a maximum of 5 years.
  • Minimum amounts. You can borrow from as little as $10,000 with overdrafts and term loans.
  • Repayment options. For the overdraft and line of credit products, you make interest-only repayments in arrears. You can choose to repay the principal and interest on the term and commercial rate loans. Fees apply for early repayment and settling the loan amount before the end of the loan period.

What other products does BOQ offer?

Besides business loans, BOQ also offers the following financial products:

  • Savings and investment accounts. Choose between three savings and investment accounts, a self-managed superannuation account or investment in BOQ bonds.
