Funding Support
I have just used BCRS for the first time to gain lending support through the CBIL's process. We also applied to the Company's Bankers simultaneously. Our Business Development Manager Lynn Wyke spent time in getting to understand the business, the impact Covid 19 had on it and the opportunities for growth going forward. Completion of the application to draw down was 2 weeks. The existing bank did nt bother having a meeting and simply declined even though the business had an excellent profitability track record and had nt borrowed previously. BCRS maybe more expensive than the High Street Banks but they really want to help West Midlands Businesses.
