  • PRE-INVESTMENT REVIEW FOR A GROWTH CAPITAL INVESTOR

    We needed a review of an alternative finance lender’s portfolio book as part of our due diligence process before making a large investment in the business. E&D were recommended to us by a national accountancy firm who understood the level of detail and commercial insight that we wanted to see. E&D responded quickly and positively throughout the whole process and proved to be a knowledgeable and competent adviser. We enjoyed working with Ian who provided the commercial view we needed to help form our investment decision.

    The solution that E&D found for us has resulted in a saving of both time and money, E&D listened carefully to what our needs were and not only found a solution which suited our current position, but also one which can support our future growth. Ian’s professional advice and guidance added clarity and direction to the process

  • ASSET BASED LENDING PRE-INVESTMENT REVIEW FOR A PRIVATE EQUITY HOUSE

    Thank you for all your support in firstly sourcing a working capital facility for us and, secondly, assisting the team with the set-up process. Its flexibility and relatively low cost are just what we need.

  • REVIEW FOR INVESTORS OF SECURED SME LENDER

    E&D carried out a review of our investee’s secured lending book which required an understanding of the operational and underwriting processes. Their experience and knowledge meant that E&D quickly understood our systems and procedures which minimised disruption for the busy team. We received a succinct report containing guidance and commercial advice which was helpful to share with senior management.
