About Us
Haslam Consult is a UK commercial finance brokerage focused on invoice finance, factoring and invoice discounting. We help businesses understand their options, compare them properly and arrange facilities that suit the way they actually operate.
Funding should fit the business. Not the other way round.
We do not lend money. We help businesses understand which invoice finance structures are appropriate, identify providers whose appetite matches their profile, compare the options on a like-for-like basis and support the application through to completion.
Providers set their own criteria, pricing and terms. Our value is in knowing how they differ, presenting your business properly, and making sure you understand what you are agreeing to before you sign.
Five things we hold to
Understand the business first
Before any facility is discussed, we want to know how you invoice, who you sell to, how they pay and what the funding is actually for. The right answer follows from that, not the other way round.
Explain things clearly
Invoice finance has its own vocabulary. Advance rates, concentration limits, recourse, disclosure. We translate it, without dumbing it down, so you can make a decision you understand.
Appropriate funding, not funding at any cost
A facility that is too large, too restrictive or wrongly structured creates problems of its own. If invoice finance is not the right fit, or the timing is wrong, we will tell you.
Think beyond the first facility
Businesses change. Turnover grows, customers come and go, processes mature. We look for arrangements that can evolve rather than ones that will need unpicking in a year.
Be straightforward
Plain communication, realistic expectations and no pressure. You should always know where you stand and what happens next.
A broker, not a lender
- Independent guidance
We work for you, not for a particular lender. Our job is to find a facility that fits, not to fit you to a facility.
- Options compared, not just offered
Facility types, providers and terms differ more than most people expect. We compare them on a like-for-like basis.
- Support through to completion
From the first conversation through application and set-up, you have someone who understands the process.
Where a facility is arranged, we may be remunerated by the finance provider. We will explain how that works before you commit, and details are available on request. See our important information page.
Who you will be dealing with
Our aim is that you deal with the same adviser throughout, from the first conversation to completion.
Profile to follow. Adviser name, role and background will be added here once confirmed. Nothing on this page should be read as a statement of qualifications, memberships or regulatory status until that information is published.
