Alternative Finance Supporting SMES

Where do you go for the finance that you need?

Gone are the days where you could go to your bank and have a chat with the manager. Alternative finance is a broad term which describes finance that is not provided by a traditional bank loan. And with the closure of so many high street banks, alternative finance is now filling the gaps left by the them. Which is actually a good thing for SMEs!

The competitive alternative finance market puts you the business owner firmly in the driving seat, where you can access bespoke funding solutions from finance companies that want to lend to businesses like yours!

“Mike at Mulberry Asset Finance worked incredibly hard and quickly to secure my first Hire Purchase deal. As a new company I was finding it difficult to obtain finance to grow my business. He provided me regular updates, which took a lot of the pressure and nerves out of the situation. With the finance clearing very quickly, I was able to put my GrandMA3 to work straight away - supporting The Eagles on their final EU tour. I will certainly use Mulberry’s services to continue growing the business.”
