While this can undoubtedly be frustrating, the good news is that you are not restricted to just your bank when it comes to securing funding for your business.

Can I get business finance if my company is insolvent?

The insolvency practitioner’s role at this point is to assess your company’s financial situation so that they can provide guidance on whether additional finance is appropriate.
