Fundraising for Business

At AAB, we can explain which finance sources are likely to be appropriate for your business and your particular needs at the time. For example, do you need a short-term, relatively modest injection of funds or are you looking for a considerable sum to fund long-term plans? Then we’ll also talk you through the pros and cons of each route, so we can weigh them up together and guide you to an informed and commercially sound decision.

Once we’ve guided you through the most realistic and practical funding possibilities, we can then initiate the process of securing your finance. This includes project managing the process and carrying out critical aspects such as due diligence on your funders, thereby saving you time which you can devote to running your business.

From there, we’ll help you set out a sound, compelling business plan and credible financial forecasts, and prepare and present your proposals. Having good working relationships with many finance providers means we can approach and negotiate with them on your behalf. Throughout the process, we’ll keep you updated with advice and if you wish, accompany you to meetings with your funders to ensure they go smoothly. When the funding is agreed in principle, we’ll liaise with your lawyers on the legal documents and advise on the commercial elements, to ensure you’ll be securing the most advantageous terms.
