Definition
The undrawn facility is the difference between your agreed limit and the amount currently drawn. On a committed line it usually attracts a non-utilisation fee.
In plain terms
It is your reserve tank — money you can call on the same day without a fresh application.
Why it matters for your company
Keeping sensible undrawn headroom is cheap insurance against a shock. Track it via your utilisation rate. A Credicorp facility lets you keep headroom on tap and only pay interest on what you draw.
