The management team is one of the most experienced in the sector having spent over 100 years’ between them in the industry.

In a competitive market Positive are seen as a premium provider, with a focus on building and maintaining close relationships with their clients.

Managing director at Positive, David Smith, said: “In 2007, when we opened the doors, the lending market was changing.

“With our experience, we felt we could continue to provide the close personal support SME’s required, and we haven’t looked back since.

“In a competitive industry, we believe our offering is different as we are independent and owner managed.

“We offer flexibility to our clients, not only when they start, but throughout the relationship and in this way both parties benefit.”
