    We work with companies operating in a wide range of sectors, all of whom have different requirements.

  • Our Clients

    We work with companies of all sizes and across all sectors, ranging from heavy industry and manufacturing to service providers such as media, technology and advisory firms. Whilst they typically fall into the £50m+ turnover range, some of our largest clients have annual revenues exceeding £1bn. We work with our clients to secure debt finance ranging from £10,000 to more than £10m. For our corporate clients, however, we can arrange funding extending to £20m or more.

    We take huge pride in our expertise as asset-based lending and company debt specialists, and work hard to source bespoke solutions on our clients’ behalf.
