GET STARTED
Finding the right business finance can help you take the next step, whether you’re investing in equipment, managing cash flow, purchasing commercial property or planning for growth.
At Principal Business Finance, we help UK businesses explore a range of commercial finance options to suit their individual requirements. As a business finance broker, rather than a direct lender, we work with you to understand your funding needs, explain the available options and support you through the application process.
Our three step process
Our straightforward three-step process helps you understand your options, prepare your application and know what to expect along the way.
Enquiry
Every business has different financial requirements, so we start by getting to know yours. We’ll discuss what your business does, how much funding you’re looking for and what you plan to use it for. This initial conversation helps us identify which business finance solutions may be suitable for your circumstances.
Application
Once we’ve discussed your requirements, we’ll help you understand the application process and what information a potential lender may need. Depending on the finance product and lender, this could include:
- Basic company and contact information
- The amount of funding required and its intended purpose
- Recent financial accounts or management information
- Business bank statements and cash flow information
- Details of any equipment, vehicles or property being financed
As your commercial finance broker, we’ll help you prepare the relevant information and communicate with potential lenders.
All applications are subject to lender assessment, which may include checks on affordability, creditworthiness, and eligibility. Additional documentation, security or guarantees may also be required.
Payout
If a lender approves your application, you’ll have the opportunity to review the proposed agreement, including the costs, repayment terms and any applicable conditions. Once you’ve accepted the agreement and all lender requirements have been satisfied, funding can be released or the relevant equipment delivered, depending on the finance arrangement. Our team will help you understand the next steps so you know what to expect throughout the process.

Questions Before Contacting a Finance Broker
Is Principal Business Finance a lender or a broker?
Principal Business Finance is a finance brokerage, not a direct lender. We help businesses explore suitable funding options and assist with applications to potential lenders. The lender is responsible for assessing eligibility, setting terms and making the final credit decision.
How is the broker paid?
Principal Business Finance discloses that it may receive commission for arranging finance. The amount and structure can depend on the product and lender. Any applicable customer fees and commission arrangements should be explained before you enter into an agreement.
What information should I prepare before contacting a broker?
It's helpful to have an outline of your business, the amount of funding you need, and how you intend to use it. You may also be asked for financial information, depending on the product and lender. You don't need to have every document ready for your initial conversation. Our team can explain what may be required as your enquiry progresses.
