Your real odds
Over 100,000 businesses have been funded and more than £1 billion lent, which points to a scheme that approves applications at meaningful volume.
Assessment is individual, measured against eligibility and creditworthiness criteria rather than run as a competition, so your odds depend on the quality of your own application rather than on what other candidates submit.
