Raising finance for businesses

Equity funding

• Equity can be a powerful way to raise capital for growth. Our specialists guide you through the complexities of equity finance, from valuations and EIS (Enterprise Investment Schemes) to preparing business plans and pitching to private equity or venture capital investors. We also work with crowdfunding platforms and other innovative funding sources to help you find the right fit.

Debt financing

• Choosing the right debt structure is essential to support your business strategy. With the growing range of debt options, finding the right package can be challenging. Our extensive network of debt providers allows us to tailor financing solutions that align closely with your objectives, ensuring stability and flexibility as your business evolves.

Expansion funding

• Ready to grow your business? We’ll support you in preparing business plans and securing finance from banks or alternative sources such as venture capital trusts and development agencies. Whatever your expansion goals, we’ll find the right funding option to match your ambitions.

Growth funds and grants

• Local funds and grants offer a variety of financing options, including interest-free loans and equity investment. Our team has a strong track record of securing funding through these schemes to help local businesses grow.

Refinancing

• Finding the right funding partner is crucial. If your current funder no longer meets your needs, we can help you refinance effectively. We have long-standing relationships across the funding world and can introduce you to the right people who understand your business. By connecting you to suitable partners from the start, we save you time and ensure you’re speaking to the right contacts for your needs.

Financial modelling

• Financial modelling is crucial for providing lenders and investors with a clear, robust view of your current business performance and future potential. We build tailored, fully integrated financial models that demonstrate affordability, cash flow resilience and return potential, helping to support credible funding discussions and maximise the likelihood of securing finance on the right terms. Our models also give business owners confidence in decision-making, allowing you to stress test assumptions, understand funding impacts and plan for growth with clarity.
