In this guide we explain what asset based finance is, the main types of funding that are currently available and in what circumstances they are best used. We also explain why these options might be more suitable than standard loans and overdrafts to your business.The guide then goes on to give you tips on how to prepare for a business funding review, and how to ensure you are offered the best possible level of funding when applying for these products.What must be stressed from the outset is that the guide does not offer any kind of financial advice, nor is it endorsing or selling any particular financial product. The scope of this guide is to let you know what funding is currently available, and how it might maximise cost and efficiency savings in your business.
