As we mentioned earlier, banks from overseas have made a big contribution to the evolution of invoice finance in the UK and offered their clients a longer reach at times when export markets have beckoned. There is nothing to beat a financier with branches on a debtor’s doorstep to add peace of mind to a trade credit risk. This is such a versatile and deeply experienced invoice finance house supporting companies with a range of facilities stretching from the small factoring package to the million pound plus all-asset structured deal. The main operation centres are in Haywards Heath, Sussex and in media city in Manchester with regional offices in the leading centres throughout the UK and extensive overseas contacts.
Service levels are high and polished and a rare versatility is available should the client’s needs demand it.
