White Oak Commercial Finance Europe (WOCFE), a leading provider of Senior Secured financial solutions to small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs), mid-market, private equity (PE)-owned and PLC firms across the UK and Europe, announced the official launch of its new website.

Designed for accessibility, the resource-rich site is aimed at key business introducers and end-user businesses, with a range of flexible lending scenarios spanning asset-based lending and invoice finance facilities, helping clients realise growth through customised options.

WOCFE’s full asset-based lending proposition enables clients across a broad selection of sectors to release working capital against receivables, inventory and property, top-up cashflow levels or access an additional funding stream for plant and machinery, with no restrictive formula against the mix of assets funded. The lending process is dynamic, with the team actively looking to create new, flexible solutions to meet ever-evolving client requirements.

WOCFE conducts transactions of between £500,000 and £200 million, covering a range of scenarios from working capital, growth funding and mergers & acquisitions (M&A), to turnaround scenarios, refinance and restructuring, seasonal cash flow shortfalls and bridging to longer-term stability.

The WOCFE team also has access to the Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme (CBILS), a scheme managed by the British Business Bank on behalf of, and with the financial backing of the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and industrial Strategy (BEIS), through approved provider, White Oak UK.
