EIB launches new loans for SMEs

EIB loans for SMEs can support all types of investment or expenditure necessary to grow a small business. Hence, the investment can be:tangible, i.e. the purchase of plant or real estate (in principle, the purchase of land is ruled out unless it is vital for the investment while the purchase of agricultural land is totally excluded) or intangible, such as the financing of expenditure directly related to research and development, building up or taking over distribution networks, including in another EU Member State, the filing or acquisition of patents or the costs incurred in the transfer of an enterprise enabling the continuation of economic activity (where the buyer and the enterprise up for sale are SMEs and the amount required to finance the transfer does not exceed EUR 1m) and the permanent increase in working capital required to develop an expanding SME. EIB loans for SMEs will be provided throughout the European Union via commercial banks, which will be responsible for evaluating each loan application.

Welcome to R J Rendell & Co Ltd


Application procedure and forms are complex and much of the decision-making criteria, which civil servants in the UK and the EU work to, is not in the public domain. It can be difficult to know how best to develop the application and to maximise the potential for success.

Grant has to be the minimum necessary for any project. Grant consultants can help you legitimately increase what is considered to be the minimum payment.

A grant consultant can save you time and resources!

Robin Rendell has over 30 years worth of experience running his own business. He prepared his first grant application in 1985 and has now worked successfully as a grant consultant on over 500 grant applications and other funding proposals.

Our clients are located mainly throughout the UK, but over the years, we have worked on grant applications with a wide variety of companies based in Ireland and other parts of Europe, the USA and Hong Kong. They are all looking for funding towards the cost of investments in assets, people or innovation.

In 1994 we worked on a successful multi-million-pound grant application for what was then the largest-ever business start up in the UK.

As grant consultants we have helped secure for our clients, offers of government grants and other funding for their businesses well in excess of £22 million.

R J Rendell are a registered supplier with Business Link North West.

Where are we?

Based in Chester (just outside North Wales). Will travel throughout the UK.

Our Market

SME's, large businesses and small charitable not-for-profit organisations throughout the UK.

Our clients' business activities are as diverse as their projects are varied but they have all identified opportunities for sustained and profitable growth through capital investment or innovation and seen grants as an essential part of their financial planning.

The majority of our clients are still involved in manufacturing operations but a growing number work in traditional and newly emerging service industries.

  • We have worked with raw material producers, component and finished-goods manufacturers, and product distributors across a wide range of industries.
  • We have worked with computer software designers, clinical trial materials specialists and multi-media businesses.
  • We have worked with call-centre operators, ship repairers, tree harvesting and vehicle refinishers.

The list is endless, but all our clients want to secure real benefits from grant funding that are not conditional on them changing how and when they want to proceed with a particular project.

Costs

Free grant and loan consultation over the phone or email. Subject to location free grant consultation can include an on-site visit.

The client can then choose between either by an hourly based fee or a staged payment fee structure. Our fees are reduced for small charitable not-for-profit organisations.

We understand the need to share with our client the financial risk associated with any application for grant and our staged payment fee structure is based primarily on performance.

Business support costs are charged on an hourly based fee.
