Traditional it has only been possible to obtain stocking finance in conjunction with a factoring or invoice discounting facility. It has come to our attentiona that there are one or two specialist funders willing to look at stocking finance on a stand alone basis!
We are now finally starting to see some action from certain banks in providing efgfunding. EFG Funding or the Enterprise Finance Guarantee Scheme replaces the old Small Firms Loan Guarantee Scheme. The new scheme is supposed to be more flexible than the old and enables banks to lend money to busines users where there is a lack of tangible security. however it doesnt make a bad deal good and the banks will only advance if the deal ticks all the right boxes. To date only two banks are responsible for 90% of the lending. XL Business Finance can provide a free asessment of your eligibility for a loan under the scheme.
