BCM Ireland Finance Limited, operating as part of the broader BCM Global, is a well-established, independent provider of alternative finance solutions, primarily focusing on the Irish and UK markets. Their core business revolves around delivering tailored asset-based lending (ABL) and invoice finance solutions to businesses across a diverse range of sectors.
Unlike traditional bank lending, BCM Ireland Finance utilizes a company’s existing assets, such as accounts receivable, inventory, plant & machinery, and property, as collateral to secure financing. This approach allows them to provide funding to businesses that may not qualify for conventional loans due to factors like rapid growth, turnaround situations, or a limited credit history. This flexibility makes them a valuable resource for businesses facing challenges or seeking opportunities that require immediate access to capital.
Invoice finance, one of their key offerings, provides immediate access to cash tied up in unpaid invoices. This solution helps businesses improve their cash flow, allowing them to pay suppliers promptly, invest in growth initiatives, and take advantage of early payment discounts. The process typically involves BCM Ireland Finance advancing a percentage of the invoice value (usually between 70-90%) to the client. Once the customer pays the invoice, the remaining balance, less fees, is released.
Beyond invoice finance, their ABL solutions are more comprehensive and often involve a more in-depth assessment of a company’s asset base. These solutions are suitable for businesses requiring larger funding amounts and seeking a more strategic financial partnership. BCM Ireland Finance works closely with clients to understand their specific needs and structure financing packages that align with their business objectives. This might involve revolving credit facilities secured against multiple asset classes, providing ongoing access to capital as needed.
BCM Ireland Finance differentiates itself through its hands-on approach and deep understanding of the Irish business landscape. Their team comprises experienced professionals with expertise in lending, asset valuation, and restructuring. They emphasize building strong relationships with clients, providing personalized service and ongoing support throughout the financing process. This client-centric approach has contributed to their reputation as a reliable and trusted financial partner.
The company’s target market includes SMEs (Small and Medium-sized Enterprises) and larger corporations across various industries, including manufacturing, distribution, wholesale, and services. They are particularly active in sectors where companies hold significant levels of inventory or accounts receivable. By offering flexible and asset-backed financing options, BCM Ireland Finance plays a crucial role in supporting the growth and development of businesses across Ireland and the UK, filling a vital gap in the market for alternative finance solutions.
