Enhancing the value of your business
Every organisation has different requirements for investment and finance. There are numerous and different solutions to investment finance available — and we help guide you through the processes involved.
For funding investment into your organisation we maintain and utilise our extensive network of finance sources which can include our own investment, overseas funds, family funds, private equity and corporate banking services.
We are not limited to any one funding source and we maintain full independence when working with you to source investment for whatever purpose is required.
Investment to purchase or sell:
Acquisition
A drama production company formed eighteen months earlier needed short-term finance to develop and implement a paywall system on its website, in order to re-position and monetize its online subscriptions.
Start-Up
A new technology company, with its online-services already built and ready for market, needed guidance in securing financing to fund an extensive marketing and sales campaign involving online sales and business-to-business sales.
Distressed/ Turnaround
A small distribution company with years of experience could not raise funds for cash flow to avoid insolvency prior to meeting Fortis Partnership.
Exit/ Succession Planning
A well-established distribution/ manufacturing company wanted to release its assets to the current owner. The company had been on the open market for sale with a business broker for some years with little success and a lot of up from fees.
Bespoke finance examples:
Asset finance
Asset Finance provides the equipment you need to make your business work. An Asset Finance Agreement is a flexible alternative to a Bank Loan. Depending on the nature of your business, the assets concerned could be anything from basic office equipment to a fleet of cars or vans or plant or machinery.
Invoice discounting / factoring
When your business is dealing with low cash flow because of outstanding invoices, invoice factoring can be a quick and easy solution. Unlike a business loan, invoice factoring creates an increase in cash with money that’s already owed to your business by customers.
Specialist re-financing
We combine the financial expertise and credit facilities of traditional lenders, such as the high street banks, with the speed, flexibility and transparency of alternative business lending within our network to develop a bespoke approach for your business.
R&D Tax credits
R&D Tax Credits are one of the government’s top incentives aimed at helping UK businesses by encouraging and rewarding innovation. These credits are available to companies engaged in research and development activity, regardless of their size.
