Bank surpasses £200m of lending facilities
Secure Trust Bank’s commercial finance team in the Midlands has delivered more than £200m in lending facilities since it opened its regional office four years ago.
It has since delivered finance to more than 20 of the region’s businesses.
Over the last year, facilities provided by the bank have included a £10m combined facility to 200-year-old ceramics manufacturer Denby Pottery, and a £20m structured working capital facility to specialist precision engineer Nasmyth, which services the aerospace and defence sectors.
Most recently, the team supported e-scooter specialist Pure Electric with a bespoke £10m inventory finance facility to support the businesses growth following its success in recent years.
Led by David Parsons, regional managing director for the Midlands, the commercial finance arm of the bank opened its Birmingham office in 2018.
Clients include Birmingham-based litigation investigation company, Henderson & Jones, Leicestershire-headquartered specialist commercial vehicle provider Go Plant, and Nottinghamshire pet retailer Kennelpak.
David Parsons, regional managing director of the Midlands at Secure Trust Bank Commercial Finance, said: “The Midlands is known for being a historic and innovative hub where businesses grow and succeed. When we opened our Birmingham office in 2018, there was a great opportunity and now, just four years later, we are working on facilities in excess of £200m.
“The team has worked hard from a standing start to becoming one of the largest independent players in the ABL market. We have built a reputation for being flexible, creative, and delivering on our commitments. We are proud to have supported the region’s most innovative businesses and look forward to continuing to do so for years to come.”
