When each makes sense

Comparing the options

Our facility may be worth exploring if…

You are a director of a limited company with money built up in old or current pensions, you want a fixed rate with no credit check, and you would rather pay interest to your own pension fund than to a lender.

Other finance may be more practical if…

You have little or nothing built up, you need more than £500,000, or you need funds within days. Our facility can also sit alongside other finance.
