What is equity investment and how do you secure funding? Shaun Fooy, Senior Manager UK Network - North East England & Tees Valley at British Business Bank explains it all in this insightful article: https://lnkd.in/eyGB8f8f #EquityInvestment #Funding #BusinessGrowth

The British Business Bank announced a £660 million investment fund for the North of England to be known as  "Northern Powerhouse Investment Fund II" on 21 March 2024. Funding will be available to businesses in that region in the form of "smaller loans" (£25,000 to £100,000). "debt finance" (£100,000 to £2 million) and "equity finance" up to £5 million. This funding will be chanelled through local fund managers and venture capital intermediaries and this article identifies the appropriate type of finance for each need and the relevant intermediary, It also points out that lenders and investors will expect the businesses they support to obtain appropriate legal protection for their brands, product designs, technology and creativity and it focuses on how members of the IP Bar such as I can help businesses to secure such protection. It also outlines how we can be approached. The British Business Bank has invited me and other professionals to one of 6 roadshows around the region to celebrate the launch of the fund and this article provides links to the registration card for each of these events. https://lnkd.in/eC25mfyg

We identified the key benefits of investing in private credit: What benefits are you looking for when investing? What deal structure and practices increase your confidence in people and the deal? Diversification? Sponsor co-investment? Waterfall structure? Comment "Guide" to get our free 1 page report into what makes a great deal structure. In 2023 M6 Capital Group partnered with Aspen Funds and we launched our Private Credit Fund for accredited investors. We have identified an opportunity to provide credit to mainly apartment operators where traditional lenders are pulling back on leverage ratios due to negative/cautious sentiment. The lack of payoffs on exiting loans is restricting funding for new deals and there are still strong long term fundamentals in housing: housing shortages continue, continued strong household formation, high historical correlation to inflation, chronic underinvestment in housing, shrinking single-family buyer pool, renting is still cheaper than owning. These are a few of the reasons we are now providing credit of $1-8M to strong operators looking for funding.

How am I turning £30k into £200k completely passively? By compounding rent to rent social housing units and this is EXACTLY how to do it 👇 1. Invest in 2 units. Our current deal is Slough. 2. For each monthly payment of £1420, I will keep it untouched until it reaches £15,000 3. I will then reinvest this £15k into another unit and repeat until I have invested in 9 units. 4. After the 9 units have finished their 3 year contract, I would have made £230,040 all without lifting a finger (well apart from signing a contract) Think this strategy could work for you?

2024 Financial Round-Up: Challenges, Opportunities, and Bridging Ventures Group As we close out 2024, it's been a year of shifting economic landscapes, rising interest rates, and new government policies impacting businesses and property markets. Here’s a look back at the key financial highlights shaping the year and how Bridging Ventures Group has been helping brokers and clients navigate the changing landscape: 📊 UK Economy and Interest Rates: - The Bank of England cut interest rates twice this year, with further reductions expected in 2025. Lower borrowing costs are set to revive property and construction markets, creating exciting opportunities for investors and developers. 🏠 Housing Market: - Affordability remains a challenge, with property prices still outpacing income growth. Yet, this has opened the door for alternative finance solutions, such as bridging loans, to help clients secure opportunities in a competitive market. 💼 Business Investment and Growth: - Despite economic uncertainty and rising employer costs, public sector investment and government infrastructure plans signal strong long-term potential, especially in real estate and development. At Bridging Ventures Group, we’ve been proud to support brokers through these shifts by offering: ✅ Fast, reliable underwriting ✅ Broker-focused support ✅ Tailored solutions to close deals quickly As we look ahead to 2025, now is the time for brokers to align with trusted partners who can deliver results when it matters most.
