What a business line of credit involves

Business lines of credit: A revolving operating limit for a business, and why it behaves differently from a term loan.

A business line of credit is a revolving operating limit, drawn and repaid as working capital moves.

The term of a business loan is matched to the life of the asset or the working-capital cycle it funds.

Security may be taken over business assets, receivables or the owner's property.
