NatWest partners with Xero for SME cashflow tech


 

NatWest partners with Xero for SME cashflow tech:

NatWest has integrated with global small business platform Xero to make funding more accessible for small and medium sized (SME) businesses.

Under the terms of the integration, users will be able to access a NatWest lending service directly from the Xero platform.

Eligible Xero subscribers will be able to apply for NatWest’s Rapid Cash service, which delivers a flexible line of credit based on outstanding invoices of up to £300,000.

The new partnership is part of the bank’s wider strategy to introduce broader connectivity between its suite of ventures for small businesses and other major providers to UK small businesses.

“We’re delighted to begin offering our Rapid Cash directly to Xero’s users in such an integrated way,” said Julie Ashmore, chief economic officer at NatWest Rapid Cash. “Our customers increasingly tell us that they want simple access to quick, accessible lending that helps them run their business day to day, and we believe we’ve achieved that with Xero.

“We’re especially pleased to achieve this integration, becoming one of the first UK banks to work with a third-party partner to provide quotes directly to its customers, within their platform.”

Edward Berks, executive general manager, financial partnerships, Xero, added: “Small business owners cite poor cash flow as one of their biggest pain points, and being paid late is a major contributor.

“Instead of waiting 30 days or more for payment, Xero customers will be able to access money tied up in their outstanding eligible invoices. This will help business owners control cash flow so they can better manage their finances which is crucial in this challenging environment.”

Last week, Germany slipped into recession as more major economies face the impact of sustained lockdowns. Japan did not go into full national lockdown, but issued a state of emergency in April which severely affected supply chains and businesses in the trade-reliant nation.

Meet five advisers who’ll help your business become ‘fit for finance’

Meet five advisers who’ll help your business become ‘fit for finance’ Charlie Gilbert Content Manager Enterprise Nation   In our previous post, we covered the topic of  how to use any money you raise  – with the services of advisers being a crucial area small businesses should consider investing in. These services, however, are often needed before a business applies for funding. Take financial advisers and accountants, for example. Their job isn’t solely about helping you keep on top of your incomings and outgoings; it’s also about making you ‘fit for finance’ – in other words, helping position you as an attractive prospect to lenders or investors. They do this in myriad ways – from increasing profitability by helping you run your business more efficiently, to improving cashflow by advising on, and helping you implement, processes that keep cash in your business (automated payment collections, for example, or credit control). Some advisers will ensure you’re set up to sca...

Employees fearful about return to work

Employees fearful about return to work - survey More than half of the UK’s workforce is not ready to return to work - with many being anxious or deeply concerned, according to a new survey. In a new report by workplace wellbeing specialists, BHSF, 45 per vent described their feelings about the return to work negatively. Only five per cent of employers have put in extra employee support services for those returning to a more normal work pattern. Challenges facing businesses are compounded by the fact that not all staff are comfortable raising health concerns with their line managers. Almost one-third (30 per cent) confirmed they would not feel comfortable discussing any mental health, physical health, grief or financial concerns with their line manager. When looking at concerns where workers are comfortable disclosing with their line managers, the reading is equally alarming. Only 41 per cent said they would discuss mental health concerns with their manager, while even fewer would discu...
