One area of interest to smaller businesses is managing 'bad debts'. As businesses look to grow whether by increasing turnover (and exposure) to existing clients, or via taking on new clients, this can be a major risk to cashflow and the business itself. Lloyds Commercial is offering help in the form of their Debtor Insurance package, for borrowers and non-borrowers alike, who provide credit payment terms to other businesses. Full details can be found at www.ltsbcf.co.uk/debtorinsurance/features.
Alan adds; "We welcome the opportunity to discuss a businesses concerns in preparing for the up-turn, in helping them to manage their cashflow, minimise risks to the owners and the business itself, and supporting them in their plans as they look to the future" Alan can be contacted on 07740 698807.
