Solutions for your business

Growth capital from BGF is long-term equity funding that a management team can use to execute their strategic plans
It provides funding for a whole range of working capital and acquisition strategies where raising capital through full equity issuance would be too dilutive
Non-financial support is also offered, providing corporate governance over the long term.

How can the business growth fund support your business?

Supports management teams with a good track record, a proven business model and a desire to grow
Can provide initial growth capital of £2m–£10m for a minority equity stake and a board seat, with potential for further funding as a company grows
Long-term funding of up to 10 years, with follow-on investment, supported by a partnership based on shared goals and objectives
Investments are made in ordinary shares, loan notes or a combination. The BGF may consider an element of cash out to existing shareholders at the time of their investment
With nine offices across the UK, the Business Growth Fund stays close to the businesses it invests in.
