Growth Lending

Growth Lending has been supporting SMEs since 2011, when we first noticed a missing link in the funding lifecycle for growing businesses. Back then we focused on growth capital, bridging the gap between traditional banks and equity under the banner of BOOST&Co, but we knew this didn't solve the whole problem. In 2020 we acquired GapCap and KX Media Capital, uniting these brands under the Growth Lending banner and launching our first working capital facilities. In the years that have followed, we have grown significantly, but some things remain the same: much like the firms we support, we do things a little bit differently. A human-first lending approach enables us to be agile and flexible, with decisions made by people, not machines. We have lent more than £350m in the past two years and have more than £700m AUM to invest in growing businesses. Could yours be next?
