UK specialist business lender Boost Capital has secured a ?15m credit line from US investment firm Atalaya Capital Management.

The company aims to provide SMEs with unsecured loans of between ?3,000 and ?500,000 in as little as two days.

Chelmsford, Essex-based Boost Capital says it has funded businesses across 400-plus industries with more than ?750m loaned.
