Invoice finance, which includes factoring and invoice discounting, is a highly effective source of business funding for rapidly growing business which provides capital without the need to extend overdrafts or take out new business loans.
The old adage ‘cash is king’ is true for all firms, whether you’re an owner-manager of a rapidly expanding SME or Financial Director in charge of a business looking to develop its presence domestically and internationally.
Strong cash flow is essential for meeting day-to-day operational costs and making the strategic investments needed to maximise growth opportunities in your chosen markets.
Invoice finance, which includes factoring and invoice discounting, is an ideal method for boosting liquidity and raising expansion capital.
By drawing on the value of existing assets such as the sales ledger, machinery, property or stock, this form of finance is an effective means of quickly injecting funds into a company.
Lloyds TSB Commercial Finance’s facilities are particularly suited to helping businesses:
- Strengthen working capital in order to service a major new order or prepare effectively for a seasonal spike in demand
- Gain a competitive advantage by investing in capacity, product development and geographical expansion
