Mate of mine has just got out of being bankrupt. He's looking for a loan but is struggling. Anyone here had this problem or know of a place that could help?

Has he not learned his lesson the first time around?

Any loans he would be able to get would be subject to silly APR charges as he would be a very bad credit risk.

You're joking, right?

That's what being bankrupt means!! Does he think he'll ever get a loan ever again?

FFS!

No I am saying he's a st credit risk, and therefore shouldn't be surprised that no one wants to loan him money.

Imagine you had two sixteem year old daughters, and a bloke bummed one of them while babysitting her.

How keen would you be to leave the other one with him after that?


Capiche?

a Limited Liability company or partnership going bankrupt is very different to an individual going bankrupt.

An individual that declares themselves bankrupt will be "black listed" for quite some time. Forget credit cards, loans, mortgages etc for the next decade.

OP needs to tell his mate to save his money up.

Businesses NEVER go bankrupt - people go bankrupt.

Limited companies go into liquidation and, as you infer, a liquidated company can never borrow again - for the simple reason that it is a liquidated entity and no longer exists.

An undischarged bankrupt (i.e. a person who can never and will never clear the debts that originally made them bankrupt) used to be barred by law from borrowing ever again. Under current rules this is no longer the case. However, lenders will be very wary about lending to someone with a disatrous credit history. In the current climate even the extortionate loan sharks out there may not be too generous with their loans.
