MSME Finance, Debt & Incentive Advisory

Financial preparation and advisory support for MSMEs seeking working capital, term finance, machinery funding, debt restructuring or applicable government incentives.

Preparing the financial case lenders and authorities expect.

A well-prepared finance proposal must explain not only how much funding is required, but why it is required, how it will be used and how the business expects to service the obligation. Weak projections, inconsistent information and incomplete documentation can delay or weaken an otherwise viable proposal.

We assist MSMEs with funding assessment, financial projections, CMA data, project reports, lender documentation, debt evaluation and preliminary support for applicable incentive schemes. Our role is to prepare and present the financial case; sanction, pricing, security requirements and scheme approval remain with the relevant lender or authority.

Our Finance Advisory Approach

The proposal is developed around the actual operating cycle, purpose of finance and repayment capacity of the business.

01

Assess Before Preparing

We first evaluate whether the amount and structure of finance are supportable by the business.

02

Build Consistent Financial Information

Projections, assumptions, tax records and banking information are aligned as far as practicable.

03

Present the Financial Case Clearly

The proposal explains the requirement, use of funds and repayment logic in a form suitable for appraisal.

04

Support Clarifications

We assist with financial explanations and additional information requested during the agreed process.

How the Assignment Works

1

Initial Assessment

We understand the business, borrowing requirement, existing facilities and intended use of funds.

2

Information & Documentation

Financial, tax, banking, ownership and project information is collected and reviewed.

3

Proposal Preparation

CMA data, projections, reports and supporting schedules are prepared according to the assignment.

4

Submission Support

We assist with financial clarifications and revisions requested by the lender or authority.

Questions we hear most often.

Do you guarantee loan sanction?

No. We prepare and support the financial proposal. Sanction, pricing, security and terms are determined solely by the lender after its appraisal.

Can you help with machinery finance?

Yes. The assignment may include project cost, means of finance, machinery details, projections, cash flow and repayment-capacity assessment.

Can CGTMSE be obtained from more than one bank?

Eligibility and coverage depend upon the applicable scheme rules, borrower exposure and lender assessment. Each case must be evaluated based on current facilities and the proposed structure.

Do you guarantee subsidy approval?

No. We can assist with preliminary eligibility, documentation and financial schedules. Approval and disbursement remain subject to the applicable scheme, authority and compliance conditions.

Can you help if the business has repayment stress?

Yes. We can review cash flow, existing obligations and possible restructuring scenarios, but acceptance remains subject to the lender and applicable regulatory framework.

Important Information

Funding and incentive advisory is provided according to the agreed scope and information made available. We do not guarantee loan sanction, CGTMSE coverage, subsidy approval, interest rate, processing time or disbursement. Final decisions remain with the relevant bank, financial institution, government department or other authority.
