Acquisition Purchasing
Acquisition purchasing allows directors to realise their plans to expand through acquiring businesses in their own or another sector. Acquisition funding can be used to bridge the gap between the funds the director can raise and the cost of the target business, up to a value of £5m.
In order to guarantee the security of business acquisition finance, funds are usually leveraged against the assets within the business. Bespoke will continue to support you during every step of the business acquisition to ensure that the transaction is completed safely with a quick turnaround.
Whether you’re already inside the business or looking in from the outside, we can help fund your acquisition. We support:
Traditional MBOs: Where existing employees or management teams buy out the current directors.
External Buyers (MBIs): Where experienced individuals or teams from outside step in to acquire and lead the business.
Why Acquisition Purchasing?
Growing a business organically can be time-consuming and expensive, and there’s no real guarantee that you will be successful. This is why many businesses choose to pursue an IFA acquisition instead. Not only can it be a quicker way to fuel business growth – and provide greater returns – it can also involve less risk.
There are a multitude of benefits associated with business acquisitions, including: increased market share; greater competitive advantage; and the potential for significant savings owing to economies of scale.
Acquisition purchasing can be used to cover a shortfall of funds in a way that makes the most financial sense for your business’ unique requirements.
Greater market presence
A business acquisition will provide an immediate boost to your market presence, giving you a greater competitive advantage.
Obtain more resources
Going down the acquisition route means you can quickly obtain new resources and capabilities your company didn’t previously possess.
Entering the market
An acquisition could help you to overcome hurdles related to entering certain markets.
Deals over £250,000
For deals over £250,000, lenders may ask for a contribution of 10% to 20%. This is common when borrowing is based on the goodwill of the business rather than its physical assets.

I have recommended Bespoke’s services to a number of our clients, both that have existing factoring facilities and also to clients who are looking at their financing options. The service provided has always been exceptional and the feedback from these clients has been nothing but praise. I would therefore highly recommend the Bespoke team.

I was recommended to speak with Sam about financing a new acquisition. Slightly complicated deal but Sam was great and got the funds sorted. Process was simplified and it made the whole deal less stressful. Appreciate Sam and look forward to working with him and the team in the future! ``
