The North West Fund for Development Capital - £100k to £2m.

 

The North West Fund for Development Capital provides investment capital to support business expansion in circumstances where a business is already generating trading income and cash flow.

 

This type of funding is particularly helpful to fast growing innovative businesses which have been unable to attract investment capital from traditional sources. 

The North West Fund for Development Capital provides finance from £100,000 to £2m to trading businesses seeking finance to support their expansion plans. In return, the Fund Manager will require an equity share in the business. Capital structures can include a combination of equity, quasi-equity or mezzanine capital and loans (linked to equity) as best suits the needs of the company. Our new mezzanine finance product 'MEZZ' is especially suitable for growing businesses that need more finance than their bank will provide. The new MEZZ product fills a gap in the market, providing a finance solution that is transparent and easily understandable - a loan with a small equity option.
