The housebuilder said the facility was undrawn and it would use it to provide liquidity if needed. Under the scheme the BoE buys demonstrably healthy companies' short-term debt, known as commercial paper, to allow them to meet liabilities.
Crest Nicholson said it would announce its half-year results on 24 June. The company started reopening its sites a month ago as the government's Covid-19 lockdown started to ease.
