Collaboration with Government bodies
The Competition & Markets Authority’s (CMA) review of the SME banking sector led to a number of remedies to be implemented to help small businesses find the finance they need. We are working closely with the CMA and relevant High Street banks to implement the findings of the CMA leading to greater transparency of funding solutions and make it easier for businesses to access the funding they require.
We’ve been selected by the Government to help businesses find funding when they’ve been unsuccessful with their bank. We work with the nine largest UK banks helping their small business customers to access finance. Funding Xchange is proud to be part of this Government policy which aims to help the 25% of small business loan applicants who are declined each year.
Funding Xchange was a finalist in NESTA’s Open Banking Challenge and is actively promoting the use of Open Banking to make it easier for small business to access funding when they need it.
Funding Xchange was one of a dozen firms to achieve AISP status in the UK for the launch of Open Banking in January 2018. Funding Xchange is currently implementing Open Banking into its core technology.
Funding Xchange is part of the UKEF referral scheme made available through a team of Export Finance Managers helping connect members to lenders. Funding Xchange helps UKEF members get the best possible terms as lenders compete to offer the finance needed to fulfil each member’s export ambitions.
