Alternative Types of Funding

Equity funding is an important source of finance for start-up and growth companies but it is not the only type of funding that is available. Most companies will find that their funding will come from a mixture of sources not only at the start of the journey but right through every stage of their development.

Angel Investment Network has appointed Pegasus Funding Resources to help and advise interested clients as to which additional sources of funding are most suitable for their current needs.

Available funding options include:

  • Small Firms Loan Guarantee Schemes (SFLGS) is a government backed loan of last resort. Always hard to achieve unless you know the best routes to follow.
  • Invoice Discounting and Factoring to help you fund your growing turnover by freeing cash from your debtor book.
  • Trade Finance to assist you with the expense and delays involved with importing products from faraway places.
  • Leasing of most types of assets needed for starting and growing a company.
  • Commercial Mortgages either to free-up capital tied up in property or purchase that additional space required.
  • Payroll Funding a very useful type of unsecured borrowing as long as you have been trading for over 12 months.

To learn which type of funding is most suitable for you and to talk to experienced advisors please visit: www.pegasusfunding.co.uk

I'm the COO of a global fortune 500 company with diverse experience across many industries including commodities, telecoms, technology as well as non profit. I'm a great believer that high performance teams with the right mojo make things happen even if they have to change direction in the force of circumstance. I'm interested in investing in such a team who are already invested heavily themselves and with strong industry experience in the company they are running. I'd prefer to invest in a company run by pragmatists who have a proof of concept that works, that they clearly believe in and have the skills to run with and with which they can capture a niche, however, small.

The other business is wedding, corporate and event catering. The current businesses achieve 30% plus annual growth presently and turnover will be £1.5m this year. I have extensive experience and contacts in these areas. I am also a private investor in the commodity sector of the stock market, with a specific interest in gold and oil resource stocks. I am keen to see the various opportunities out there and interested in a variety of industries not necessarily related to the ones I currently operate in. Aged 30 I have been involved in various businesses for 10 years now, I'm Bristol university educated with a 2:1 in politics.
