About the event
Securing finance can help a business grow, invest and take its next step. But every funding arrangement comes with terms, obligations and potential risks that are important to understand before you sign.
This session, led by specialists in commercial finance, will explore some of the key legal and commercial risks businesses should consider when taking on finance. We’ll look at the terms and conditions that can shape a funding agreement, the commitments businesses may be taking on, and what can happen if circumstances change or things don’t go to plan.
The session will also explore practical ways to identify and manage risk, helping you understand the questions you should be asking and the areas that may need closer attention before entering into a finance agreement.
Whether you’re taking on finance for the first time or reviewing an existing arrangement, you’ll leave with a better understanding of the risks involved, what to look out for and when it’s important to seek professional advice.
