Dear Readers,
Welcome to the June / July 2020 edition of the Funding
Strategies newsletter!
We have been very encouraged by the level of business and investor activity during the past month. Investor confidence is returning and we have seen a rise the number of pre-IPO companies wanting to list on the ASX (as an example). Border restrictions are being eased (eg. http://statements.qld.gov.au/Statement/2020/6/30/restrictions-eased-border-plan-in-place) and Governments have been rolling out grant programs (see below) to support small and medium businesses. We have seen an increase in companies looking to boost cash flow or improve working capital by accessing invoice, trade or debt financing to support their business.
Please contact
us if you need assistance.
