SME regulations

More people in Ireland are starting their own small businesses, and many are doing well. But we also understand that unexpected challenges can lead to credit issues.

 

If those issues are in the past and your business is now back in profit, we’ll work with you to build a finance plan that fits your needs.

 

We offer flexible finance solutions at competitive rates with great service for:

  • People with strong credit histories
  • Small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs)
  • Self-employed individuals
  • Customers with past credit problems
  • Customers with little or no credit history

Background to SME regulations

The SME Regulations, set out by the Central Bank, apply to lenders who provide credit to small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs). These rules cover things like:

 

  • What information must be shared before and after you take credit
  • How credit applications and refusals are handled
  • How complaints, arrears, and financial difficulties are managed

You can find the full SME Regulations on the Central Bank website.

 

We’ve also created a simple booklet "SME Regulations: Lending to Small and Medium Enterprises" to explain how these rules apply to Close Brothers Motor Finance, and to help our SME customers understand what they can expect from us.
