Types of Finance for Professional Services

Unsecured Business Loan

Unsecured business loans are suitable for established professional services firms needing funds without offering collateral. Ideal for cash flow, investing in tech, or operational needs, approval is quick and amounts are flexible.

Unsecured Business Loan

UK-registered professional services firms trading for at least 6 months and with a minimum turnover of £50,000 per year can apply for unsecured loans between £5,000 and £250,000. Repayment terms range from 6 to 60 months, with rates from 6% to 18% APR. The online process is straightforward, usually giving a decision in 48 hours and funds shortly after. This loan supports operational expenses, technology upgrades, and smooths out working capital.

Secured Business Loan

Secured business loans offer higher borrowing amounts using business assets as collateral. Firms seeking funds for major projects or long-term investment can benefit from lower interest rates and extended terms.

Secured Business Loan

Available to established professional services firms with assets to offer as security, secured loans start from £10,000 up to £1,000,000, with terms of 12 to 120 months. Interest rates vary between 3% and 12% APR, depending on collateral value and business strength. The process may take 2 to 4 weeks, including asset valuation and credit assessment, and is suited for significant investments like new equipment or office renovations.

Invoice Financing

Invoice financing is designed for businesses managing B2B client bases with outstanding invoices. It helps access up to 90% of invoice value quickly to cover temporary cash flow gaps.

Invoice Financing

Professional services firms with B2B clients waiting for payments can use invoice financing to receive advances covering up to 90% of invoice totals, typically within 24 to 48 hours. Fees range from 1% to 3% per month of invoice value, with each invoice running on a 30 to 90 day cycle. This solution is useful for smoothing cash flow while waiting for client payments to clear.
