Norwegian term

brukskreditt

Norwegian to English Bus/Financial Accounting Annual report
Hi - I'm looking for an accurate EN translation for brukskreditt which appears in the "breakdown of lending" note in a bank's annual report.

Single line entry
Kasse, drifts- og brukskreditter

But used in a sentence
Disponerte utlån består blant annet av nedbetalingslån, rammelån med pant i bolig, kasse-, drifts-, og brukskreditter, og byggelån.

Thanks for your help!

Line of credit It’s a line of credit, plain and simple, since the key feature is that you borrow as much as you need up to the limit

consumer credit

I believe it is an amount lent by a bank when a customer needs cash for consumer purchases and that the customer is free to draw on as needed for the term of the contract.
