Invoice Finance

Invoice finance allows businesses with outstanding invoices to access funds quickly, easing cash flow gaps. It suits companies with at least £10,000 in invoices to major customers, with approvals in 2–3 days.

Invoice Finance

With invoice finance, you submit invoices to a lender, who advances a percentage of their value. When your customer pays, you receive the remaining balance minus fees. Suitable for sectors like manufacturing, recruitment, and distribution, invoice finance can fund £10,000 to £500,000, typically over 1 to 12 months at rates from 1% to 3% above the base rate.

Trade Finance

Trade finance supports companies involved in international trade, providing funding to facilitate import and export contracts from £50,000 to £1 million.

Trade Finance

Trade finance involves submitting trade transaction details and receiving funding to purchase goods. Lenders pay on delivery, helping importers, exporters, and wholesalers bridge payment gaps and reduce risks.

Project Finance

Project finance is designed for businesses with future income streams from large projects, such as construction or infrastructure, with advances from £100,000 upwards.

Typical interest rates are 4% to 8% above base rate, with approvals in around 3–4 weeks.
