In short

The business needed funding for tax liabilities, payroll and working capital within a recurring-fee practice. We arranged £133,000. The £133,000 facility completed.

Professional firms are built on people, fees and client relationships rather than machinery or stock. That changes how a lender needs to look at them.

This accountancy practice wanted additional funding, assessed on the quality of the firm itself.

  1. The requirement

    The business needed funding for tax liabilities, payroll and working capital within a recurring-fee practice.

    We arranged £133,000.

  2. The challenge

    The liability had a fixed payment date, but using operating cash to settle it in one hit would have reduced the headroom available for payroll, suppliers and normal trading.

  3. The structure

    We separated the statutory payment from normal operating cash flow and arranged finance that allowed the business to meet the liability while keeping more cash available for trading.

  4. The result

    The £133,000 facility completed.

What our clients say

I manage the VFO department at an accountancy practice and contacted Simon on behalf of a client whose unique situation made him appear unsuitable for finance. I had a chat with Simon and he got straight onto the case and found a fantastic finance deal which allows my client to take his business to the next level. Finance that appeared unattainable was sorted within a short period of time.

FAQs

Questions about this case

Can a professional firm borrow without much physical security?
Often, yes. Lenders that understand professional firms look at fee income, client relationships and the strength of the practice rather than machinery or stock. See funding for professional practices.
Can a business borrow to pay a VAT or tax bill?
Often, yes. VAT, corporation tax and other HMRC liabilities can be spread with a dedicated tax funding facility, so the bill is paid on time without draining working capital. Subject to status. See HMRC and tax funding.
Is this a real transaction?
Yes. Every case study on this site is a transaction we arranged and saw through to completion. Client details are anonymised, and we only publish what we can verify: we never invent figures, rates or outcomes.
Do you lend the money yourselves?
No. Smart Funding Solutions is a credit broker, not a lender. We search a panel of 300+ lenders, present your case to the ones whose criteria fit, and manage the application through to completion. The lender makes the final decision and all finance is subject to status.
What does it cost to talk to you?
It is free to enquire and there is no obligation. Any broker fee is disclosed separately before you proceed, and there is no obligation to accept an offer.
