Open for business – With lockdown continuing, what’s next for business finance?

Event details

With SMEs taking on debt at record levels, the need for trusted advice is increasing. Over the coming months, businesses may need help and advice on how to manage their working capital, what the best options are for cash deposits, where to turn to get more funding, etc.

FSB Funding Platform would like to invite businesses that are in this position to join our upcoming webinar to get help from our panel of experts. We are looking to discuss questions on funding to pay suppliers and staff, how to fund marketing and promotion activity and get finance to help with the process of re-opening businesses and re-start trading activity. Furthermore, we want to hear from businesses that are looking at investments in technology. This can be technology to use internally amongst staff members to make remote working easier, or to improve the website and e-commerce capability to reach more customers online.

All of the above will require investments of time and capital. As such, FSB Funding Platform would like to help you save time and effort when it comes to sourcing finance for your business. We are aware that through Government-backed lending schemes many businesses have taken on debt recently, and some of them for the first time. If there is any support you need before or after the webinar, please consider exploring your options using the FSB Funding Platform

https://www.fsbfundingplatform.co.uk – the service is available 24/7 and a team of finance experts can help you navigate your options, to help you find the best funding option for your business.
