Finance and banking consultancy

When you’re dealing with financial experts, it can help to have a few on your side.

Our team have spent many years in the banking and finance industry – which can prove invaluable and reassuring both to our clients, and the banks, funders and individuals they deal with. We can help on the structure, pricing and appropriateness of funding options, including security and covenants, and we are always happy to join in meetings between clients and their funders.

Investments

We don’t offer investment advice, but we can help you make the most of what you have,

Through our third-party provider, we can help you to obtain the best returns on any surplus cash you have in the bank. We identify which deposit-taking institutions pay the most competitive credit interest rates to meet your liquidity needs, whilst also ensuring the safety of the underlying deposit, to make sure your money is working as hard as possible.

Tax funding

Setting aside funds to pay your tax never seems a priority… until the bill lands.

Businesses of all sizes can have issues when it comes to paying their Corporation Tax or VAT if they haven’t allocated funds in advance. That’s why we’ve created a funding service which allows you to cover the cost of your taxes for up to 12 months ahead. Our hassle-free Tax Funding Plans allow you to spread tax liability, preserve cash flow, prevent late payment charges from the HMRC, and ensure peace of mind. They’re available for self-assessment, too.

Benefits include:

Control of cashflow
Fixed monthly payments
Flexible re-payment terms
Free up cash to invest in other areas of your business
No need to speak to your bank
Quick and simple to arrange
