I need to fund a product recall or warranty issue — how do I cover the cost?

A recall or warranty issue brings sudden cost and reputational risk; a short facility funds putting it right quickly, which protects far more value than it costs. A recall or widespread warranty issue costs money to put right, but handling it quickly and well protects the reputation and customer trust that are worth far more than the fix.

Why speed protects value

A recall or widespread warranty issue costs money to put right, but handling it quickly and well protects the reputation and customer trust that are worth far more than the fix.

Fund the fix

A short working-capital facility covers the cost of repairs, replacements or a recall so you can act decisively. Model the hit on your cash-flow forecast.

Fix the root cause too

Fold in the process or supplier change that stops it recurring. Borrowing to close a genuine quality risk defends the business's future, not just its present.
