Improve cash flow

We support businesses by providing working capital facilities linked to the value of a company's debtor book. It could be an excellent way of providing funding for your company and funds may be available at a higher level than those through conventional banking products.

If your business provides trade credit, Invoice Finance could provide the immediate funding that you need.

A good quality debtor book enables you to release cash from one of your most valuable assets to part-fund an acquisition or to finance ongoing working capital needs.

An Invoice Finance Facility is not just for businesses experiencing cash flow pressures. If you are looking to expand either organically or through acquisition it can help too.

Invoice Finance may facilitate a deal that would otherwise prove impossible, without diluting ownership of your business
