Both lenders previously delivered funds to businesses through the coronavirus business interruption loan scheme, which closed for applications at the end of March and was replaced by the RLS which launched on 6 April.
The RLS, which is due to run until the end of the year, subject to a review, has a £10m maximum limit per business or £30m per group.
The British Business Bank (BBB) has accredited many lenders to the RLS recently, including Genesis Asset Finance, Independent Growth Finance, Conister Finance & Leasing, Finance For Enterprise, Simply Asset Finance, British Enterprise Fund and Shawbrook Bank.
According to the BBB’s website 66 lenders have been accredited to the scheme.
