One in four SMEs have struggled to secure funding in the past year^*

Whether you're fulfilling large orders, managing input costs, or investing in production capability, when demand rises or cash flow is stretched, access to external finance is critical.

SME finance traditionally includes overdraft or business loan, designed to give established businesses the working capital and liquidity to manage high operational costs, take on larger contracts, hire staff or invest in capital equipment.

Delays and restrictions in traditional finance are driving SMEs towards alternative funding. Our recent survey shows non-bank lenders (55%) are now preferred over high street banks (45%), highlighting this shift.**

SMEs are choosing revolving working capital facilities such as Invoice Finance.

In partnership with the Strategic Banking Corporation of Ireland, we offer discounted funding and our strategic collaboration with PTSB delivers additional support to fulfil complex transactions like M&A and MBO.

Our clients rely on our experience and insight, and they know exactly who to call - real people who are invested in their success.
