Asset Based Lending – taking your business to the next level

If your business has strong assets and needs working capital to fund day-to-day activity or expansion plans, Asset Based Lending (ABL) could be an ideal solution for you.

What is Asset Based Lending?

It works very simply, by releasing cash against your business assets, giving you maximum cash flow gain, so you can take your business to the next stage.

Asset Based Lending is used in conjunction with Invoice Finance and you can release cash against stock, plant and machinery, and property.

ABL delivers innovative and complex funding solutions and is ideal for growth opportunities such as mergers and acquisitions, MBOs and MBIs, as well as refinancing and turnarounds.

Invoice Discounting Facility Supports SME Turnaround

Invoice Discounting Facility Supports SME Turnaround

Our back was completely against the wall – Clancy got us a fantastic offer of finance, which was a real game changer.

A food processing business based in Limerick (€7M turnover) was restructuring following a downturn. Its bank was reducing the €1.5M invoice discounting facility and planning to exit. The business had a strong pipeline but needed additional cashflow to trade through the peak season. CBF introduced a funder willing to support the turnaround and structured an invoice discounting facility with 95% prepayment for nine months. This released an additional €500K from the debtors ledger and helped ease seasonal cashflow pressure.
