Business Fundraising Solutions
As a consequence of operating in the corporate recovery and restructuring field we appreciate the need for companies to have the right level and type of funding for the business, whether it is to consolidate or expand. We have experience of assisting companies in a financial restructuring process including the provision of funding options. The requirement of the business would be assessed, and the funding structure would be optimised to maximise liquidity at least cost.
We can assist our clients with securing finance for a whole range of purposes, including to fund the purchase of assets (property, plant and machinery or vehicles), or simply to help your business maintain a healthy cash flow. We will deliver independent and tailored advice direct to the company’s directors or intermediary.
Understanding the requirements of factoring and invoice discounting providers we can recommend the most appropriate provider having access to a number of lenders operating in this market, ensuring we can identify the most appropriate and cost-effective finance solution for your needs.
We can also assist with the presentation of the necessary information which the funder will require to assess the viability of the business and the funding sought.
We can arrange a range of finance options including:
| Bridging Finance | Overdrafts |
| Commercial Mortgages | Short-term Finance |
| Crowdfunding | Spot Invoice Factoring |
| Development Finance | Stock Finance |
| Equipment Finance | Trade Finance |
| Invoice Discounting | Vehicle Finance |
| Invoice Factoring |
The alternative to funding via borrowing is equity investment. Equity investment is when an investor, either a high net worth individual or institutional fund, takes share capital in the business in return for extra funding to give the business either the ability to buy the fixed capital items that will generate new business areas or revenue, or sufficient capital to allow the management team to have time to turn the business around.
The current shareholders/management team will need to prepare a detailed business plan analysing the opportunities and threats, with a detailed cash flow and sales forecast concerning the opportunity.
We will then assist with decision whether it is appropriate to take the opportunity to an individual high net worth investor, syndicate of business angels or a dedicated institutional turnaround fund.
It will then be decided whether it is appropriate to take the opportunity to an individual high net worth investor, syndicate of business angels or a dedicated institutional turnaround fund.
The relevant investor will undertake due diligence on the opportunity before committing to the investment. However, the investors will be used to making these decisions within the compressed timescales often required in these scenarios.
