Are You Looking For Finance? (Finance FAQs available see link at bottom of page)
And does this sound like you?
You’re a director or shareholder in a small to medium sized UK company. Annual sales are generally around £1m- 10m pa. Perhaps there are reasons why business has been tough recently but the underlying business is sound. You have struggled through the last few months but now you think you might soon run out of capital.
You and the other directors have probably invested everything you can afford into the business and you are probably struggling to take a proper living from the business, (so you are effectively subsidising it to guarantee survival).
Yet you know that the business can turn the corner – perhaps new products or markets or the cutting of costs have led the business to the stage where you can see light at the end of the tunnel. This funding paradox is very common in the UK.
Because of the weakness of the balance sheet and lack of available security to lend against the bank often just says no, this can make it very difficult to pay creditors. This can make your business “sub-prime” – this is banking speak for the fact that you cannot easily raise further funds against the assets of the business.
If this describes your business then you should be talking to KSA!
KSA Company Rescue specialises in helping businesses that need working capital and is therefore often able to access funding that is not normally or readily available.
But first a question: Are you sure that more finance will help or are their more fundamental problems with the business that prevent lenders from supporting the business? Try reading our guide at is our company insolvent first.
