- Assistance for MBOs and MBIs
If you are planning an MBO or MBI you need affordable financial advice,
without this you risk a wrong decision. We help you through the deal,
whether by finding you the funding you need or by our hands on approach
liaising with other parties as necessary.
When the deal is complete you may find the business does not have the
financial expertise you need for the day to day issues - you can benefit
from our accounting and payroll services.

- Business Recovery
If you are worried your business might fail call us as soon as you
can. There is no time to lose and we are ready to help as soon as
you make contact.
Our first task will be to secure your current position, look at the
cash position, funding and talk 'if necessary' to your creditors.
After this we will analyse your business performance. We need to ensure
that your business can make profits and generate cash. When this is
done your cash shortfall can then be addressed.

- Business Plans
Your business proposition or funding request will need a business
plan to support it. You will need text as well as your financial projections
to cover a number of years.
Oriels business plan consultants will help you prepare the text and
advise what items you will need to cover. We will prepare the financial
projections for you ensuring that the underlying data is good and
advising you on the key assumptions. Too many business plans are over
optimistic, you need something that is attractive but realistic and
achievable. Our business plan consultants will help you to prove yourself
by beating the projections.
- Fund Raising
Raising funds is critical to any business proposition and you may
need extra working capital at any time. We can prepare cash flow forecasts
as well as detailed business plans to support proposals.
We have access to a number of finance companies and banks as well
as sources of equity capital. Finance can take many forms including
lending against your fixed assets or against your debtors by way of
factoring or invoice discounting. You may be able to benefit from
the Small Firms Loan Guarantee Scheme.
- Due Diligence
The importance of due diligence cannot be overstressed. Many acquisitions
of businesses fail as a direct result of relying on incorrect data
or of not gaining a sufficient understanding of the business, its
characteristics and frailties.
We will look in detail at all accounting and statutory records and
examine material supporting contracts and other agreements. We seek
to identify all relevant facts and to advise you on all those matters
which you should be aware of.
