In the latest Business Finance Bulletin, Rob Warlow looks at a survey from Bibbys Financial Services which reveals that a growing number of businesses are considering alternative sources of finance because their existing providers aren’t servicing them well. Yet there are barriers facing businesses which stop them from moving.

According to findings by KPMG family-owned businesses find it challenging to raise finance via selling equity because of an expectations mis-match. But there is one solution which would help family businesses access the finance they need. So how can the tap into this source of cash?

In the Business Finance Tip of the Week, a clip from a live seminar in which Rob shares his views on why you should focus on preparing a polished pitch when presenting your funding case to the bank.
