Ultimate Finance

The ABM has a long-standing partnership with Ultimate to the benefit of our mentors and their clients.

Ultimate Finance’s aim is to be the funding partner of choice for businesses and introducers. Since opening in 2002, they’ve delivered over £10bn in funding to support business ambition. Backed by the Tavistock Group, they provide asset-based funding solutions to businesses across all markets, regardless of size. These funding solutions include Invoice and Asset Finance, Bridging Finance and Structured Finance. They also have a specialist product for recruitment and construction clients and those looking for a Trade Finance facility.

What makes Ultimate Finance different?

They take a dynamic approach to lending: they look at the bigger picture to find the right solution at the right time, and the ability to blend these solutions together is one example of this.

They ensure a long-term, consistent partnership approach and are committed to supporting and facilitating their clients’ ambitions as they grow.  Their relationship driven approach to funding is why clients and introducers have awarded Ultimate Finance an industry leading score of 4.9/5 on Trustpilot.

As part of our Partnership, we have agreed the following:

·        The ABM will feature in the quarterly client newsletter sent by Ultimate Finance, providing a knowledge session to the readership on the impact of business mentoring. If you have ideas for this and would like to contribute please contact ABM Marketing.

·        ABM is to be included in the Partners internal Toolkit – The “Toolkit document” provides details to their Relationship Managers of additional services they can signpost with their clients (Business Owners, MD’s, CEO’s or FD’s).  The ABM presence in this document means Mentors are always on the list to receive a referral.

·        Supporting ABM Events – Ultimate Finance are happy to provide venues or contributions to joint regional events, and market these.  This can also take the form of bolstering the credibility of an event by having a speaker or panel guest join the ABM and they are willing to have their CEO available and would appreciate an invite to appropriate Regional Events.

·        Office availability – Ultimate Finance has office space in Bristol, Manchester, Leeds, Edinburgh and Lutterworth. Subject to availability and by prior arrangement ABM mentors will be able to use desk space or hold meetings. To book please contact Mark O’Neil.

·        Ultimate Finance will offer relevant clients a no-obligation 30-minute consultation with a Full  ABM Member Mentor. Subsequently Clients can benefit from an introductory offer of three 60–90-minute mentoring sessions for the price of four (charged at the usual mentors’ rates, with the fourth session being free).   

For any business that a Mentor would like to introduce to Ultimate Finance this can be done through Mark O’Neil. With over 35 years commercial lending experience Mark will provide advice as to the suitability of their product range for the Mentee and monitor progress/manage the administration on the mentors behalf. For any successfully introductions to  Ultimate Finance that subsequently becomes an invoice finance client a commission payment of 20% of the monthly service fees will be paid to the introducing Mentor per month for the life of the transaction (typically 3 years on average) - this will be administered by the ABM.
