1 If you default on your loan, we will look to realise all other available collateral provided to support your loan before we make a demand on any personal guarantee. The maximum we would then seek to recover under any personal guarantee will be limited to 20% of the amount of your loan that remains outstanding after the proceeds of all other available collateral have been applied. Only after this will we look to realise the government guarantee to HSBC.
2 For loans up to and including £50m, dividend restrictions will apply. For loans over £50m, executive pay, dividend and share buyback restrictions will apply.
