Successful businesses often require external funding to ensure they can make the most of growth opportunities. The market also offers funding solutions for those who want to realise some value from their business holdings without realising a full exit.
In the years since the financial crash of 2008 and the consequent changes to bank regulation, there has been a proliferation of funding solutions, ranging from pure equity through a range of debt funds (with a range of risk/reward structures) and asset backed lenders, to standard bank debt.

Be it Series A equity, venture debt, growth finance, debt restructuring or development capital, we have experience, connections, and advice to help ensure you secure the best outcome.
