PMD strengthens offer with debt advisory team

A business finance firm is broadening its services to better support SMEs.

Oldham-based PMD Business Finance has launched a new debt advisory service to complement its existing credit broking operations. 

The new team includes experienced directors Callum Bull, John Platt, Mark Millhouse and Kai Wynne-Jones, supported by Debbie O’Grady and relationship manager Lewis Alessandra. 

Chief financial officer Nick Dumper, with a background at PwC and CarFinance247, will also provide additional support to the team.

The expanded offering aims to help SMEs and their professional advisors, such as accountants and restructuring specialists, explore debt finance options that support growth and strategic funding needs.

Callum said: “Since 2010, we’ve helped more than 12,000 businesses to access finance for growth. 

“Our new debt advisory services will enable us to build further upon what we’re already doing to support business leaders and management teams, utilising the skills of our team to provide even greater value for our clients.

“We recognise that all businesses are at different stages of their journey, so we’ve put together a team with wide ranging specialisms and a track record of supporting clients to find, evaluate and select the debt finance option that’s right for them.”

John added: “Rather than simply connecting businesses with the funding to meet their immediate or medium-term needs, our aim with the debt advisory team is to go deeper in understanding the long-term strategic objectives of our clients.

“We’re looking to dovetail our advice with that of other professional advisors to help clients navigate the increasingly fragmented SME debt finance market, an area we feel is currently underserviced in terms of that deep level of advice that’s available for larger corporates.”
