How to approach cash flow funding

The right route depends on why the cash gap exists, how long it is likely to last, what money is due to come in, and whether repayments will remain affordable.

1
Identify the pressure Clarify whether the issue is delayed payment, seasonality, growth, overheads or a one-off gap.
2
Review the forecast Look at expected income, outgoing costs, payment timing and the likely repayment window.
3
Match the funding route Consider whether working capital, invoice finance, revolving credit or revenue-based funding fits best.
4
Move forward carefully Check eligibility, affordability, fees, repayment terms and the impact on future cash flow.
