- Invoice Finance
- Waiting to be paid is hard on any business. Invoice Finance lets businesses use their sales ledger as an asset which they can borrow against. It’s a simple way to release the cash that’s tied up in unpaid invoices. Instead of waiting weeks or even months to be paid, the cash can be accessed within 24 hours.
- Asset Finance
- We make it easy to get the equipment a business needs without the upfront costs through Hire Purchase, Lease or Refinance. And we’re fast. Finance is usually in place within 24 hours.
- Bridging Finance
- Where property is concerned, speed is everything. We’re able to have a decision in principle within 24 hours, and a fully credit backed offer within 72 hours.
- Construction Finance
- Construction businesses can often face cashflow challenges whilst waiting for customers to pay. New contracts are great for business, but they also bring with them new expenses, such as buying supplies upfront and paying additional wages, often leading companies to need to tap into their working capital before they receive their first payment. Construction Finance frees up the liquidity needed to complete existing contracts whilst looking to take on new ones so that growth ambitions aren’t slowed down.

- Recruitment Finance is a type of Working Capital Finance tailored to the needs of businesses within the Recruitment industry. It’s a complete finance and back office package in one simple to manage facility. We advance cash against temporary or permanent placements so that there is no need to wait for clients to pay invoices, as well as facilitate the processing, payroll and credit control demands by giving you access to RSM’s market-leading Recruitment Pay & Bill services.

A pleasure to work with!
Being a fairly new customer of UF, I had my fears of change but I can quite honestly say there was no fear needed. The switch over was stress free and handled with the utmost professional support from all the team. Hannah who is my main contact goes above and beyond to make the everyday running of our business as smooth as possible. Highly recommend.
