Freedom 2 Trade acts as an independent corporate advisor and arranger of finance for our clients. We are not constrained by any particular asset type or transaction size, or specific market sector - indeed we are sector ‘agnostic’. We have successfully completed individual transactions ranging from £600,000 to in excess of £16.5 million in the 30 months in which we have operated. Equally, we are able to offer access to just about every form of asset-based finance product available as a result of our extensive contact base with a range of institutions with whom we work closely and boast reciprocal relationships. Often, the simplest financial products (term loan, evergreen revolving facility, finance lease, receivables financing, asset-based lend, equity injection, mezzanine funding, senior debt injection) often provide the most appropriate solution. However, in certain circumstances structured leveraging against certain assets with additional tax enhanced funding methods may be the beneficial option. We endeavour, on your behalf, to procure and obtain quotations from all sources to whom the proposed transaction is likely to appeal, following which we will assist in discussions with the selected financier, ensuring that the transaction documentation is to your benefit and satisfaction, whatever solution you choose. Accordingly, we can accommodate virtually every situation, whether you have a direct financing or funding requirement as a corporate body or maybe you are a member of a management team or entrepreneurs that would benefit from some well-informed corporate advice and support. |
