Raising Capital

 

Mostly when a business needs new capital, it needs it quickly. The problem is, the process of finding it takes a great deal of time and takes the focus away from the day to day business, which often impacts further on the cash flow and in turn makes matters worse.

 

The Bayard Partnership does not have a magic solution, but it does have very good contacts with financiers for sums of capital from as little as 50,000 Euros to +/- 5 million Euros.

 

To find capital every company needs to have a good (realizable) business plan that shows the necessary growth rates over the length of the loan, or cash for shares scheme proposed.

 

A typical problem for many SME’s is that when they need cash, they are not able to pay for the expertise they need and are thus dependant on ‘families, fools or friends’. That maybe ok for small sums, but sooner or later serious professional help is required. The Bayard Partnership has some very creative schemes for financing the supply of their professional services, especially for their finance and marketing services.
