Asset Based Lending

We provide business owners and entrepreneurs with additional support by funding them through change, growth and shareholder movement. The team focuses on allowing shareholders and managers to maximise ownership and wealth creation.

Our full Asset Based Lending (ABL) proposition provides leverage against:

• Receivables
• Inventory
• Plant and machinery
• Property
• Cashflow/acquisition finance loans

Cashflow/acquisition finance loans are available alongside our ABL facilities or as part of a composite funding package including mezzanine and/or minority equity.

 ABL is a powerful funding technique that uses and maximises business assets to meet the financial demands of growth and acquisition activity. It provides businesses significant benefits such as:

• In the mergers and acquisitions arena, it enables businesses to use their balance sheet assets to create the funds to purchase businesses. Additionally, an acquirer can leverage a target company’s assets to increase available funding to facilitate the transaction;
• Allows business owners and entrepreneurs to operate from a position of strength and take advantage of opportunities while maximising equity positions and future value creation;
• In most mid-market businesses, working capital assets (such as receivables), tend to represent the largest balance sheet items. ABL enables mid-market businesses to significantly improve cashflow;
• A single deal team that brings certainty to deal execution, and maintains the relationship post-execution.
