Business lending & commercial borrowing
In 2019 the British Business Bank undertook an in depth survey looking at how UK companies seek borrowing. Some of the findings are unsurprising, some the opposite.
Here are some highlights, it may make you realise you are far from alone in what you have experienced.
Why Choose a certain lender
Ignoring everything else, including whether the finance is right for your business. 41% of businesses will borrow from a lender they have a relationship with regardless of terms, cost or anything else. It should always be about the right deal for you. Because we specialise we can help with that
borrower experience
Only 19% of commercial entities that sought finance said their experience of borrowing either matched of exceeded their expectations. It doesn't have to be this way . Because we maintain great relationships with our lenders we understand what you want and what lenders can meet those expectations, it makes for a much better experience
fear of rejection
A total of 34% of businesses cited a fear of rejection as the reason they avoided raising finance. Other top reasons were terms being too strict as well as borrowing being too expensive. This happens when you use the wrong lender . Because we know our client we know what works and what doesn't. We remove the fear of rejection and match the lending to the terms you're happy with
knowing your options
Of those businesses surveyed, only 26% thought they knew what lending options existed. This means 3 in 4 businesses are unsure or don't know what options exist for financing their business. This is pretty scary but not unexpected. Because we know the options we can guide you in finding the right lending for your business
