Invoice finance is one of the most effective ways to improve your company’s cash flow. In most business to business situations customers are given delayed payment terms, which means it be can be several weeks or even months before customers pay you what they owe. This can put a strain on your company’s cash flow.

Invoice finance works best when a company invoices its customers and clients who will then pay in arrears for a product or consultancy. Therefore, it works best with sell and forget products, which are either manufactured or distributed or services that are invoices in arrears such as temporary manpower, print or logistics.

If you have staff wages to pay as well as suppliers and standard business rates and expenses operating efficiently can be restricted.

However, invoice finance gives you flexibility to unlock cash tied up in your invoices. We have a range of strong relationships with high street banks and independent lenders alike that will advance up to 90% of the cash owed to you by your customers by advancing cash against your invoices immediately so that you don’t have to wait 30, 60 or 90 days for the cash to be paid to you. This will enable you to concentrate on your day – to – day business affairs without worrying about cash.

The remaining balance will be forwarded to you by the lender when the customer pays.

If you have a transaction taking place in your business cycle such as a management buyout (MBO) a management buy in (MBI) or a buy in – management buyout (BIMBO) unencumbered invoices on your ledger may be able to accelerate cash for these purposes to enable to achieve your goal.

Most importantly we will work closely with your legal advisors once we have mutually identified a suitable candidate that we complete a deal with.

Having dealt for many years with vendors of owner-managed businesses we understand that the approach to buying a company from potential acquisition candidates is vital. 

We are able to engage in constructive dialogue and build relationships quickly in order to understand the requirements of the vendor where we do not have an existing relationship before moving discussions onto a more transactional level.

Whilst we have a significant database of existing connections within the UK and European SME and Mid - Market we will undertake a strategic review, analysis of recent deals and transaction activity thorough desk-based research in order to build a tailor - made acquisition strategy to mirror your requirements. 

Once we have collectively identified a target we will work closely with you, the vendor’s management and your lawyer to ensure successful completion and a successful integration, which is a well - documented requirement for success when making acquisitions.
