    Our Services

    Capital Raising Solutions

    A comprehensive range of fundraising instruments — from debt securities to equity and tax-efficient schemes — tailored to your business stage and objectives.

    Structured debt solutions for businesses seeking to raise capital through fixed-income securities.

    Loan Notes

    A loan note is a debt instrument issued by a company to raise capital from investors. The company borrows money from investors and agrees to repay the principal amount on a set maturity date, along with interest payments (known as coupons) at an agreed rate. Loan notes can be secured against company assets or unsecured.

    Bonds

    A bond is a fixed-income debt security issued by a company (corporate bond) or for a specific project (project bond) to raise capital. The issuer promises to pay the bondholder a fixed or variable rate of interest (the coupon) over a defined period, and to return the face value of the bond at maturity.

    Convertible Loan Notes

    A convertible loan note (CLN) is a hybrid instrument that starts as a loan but gives the investor the right to convert the outstanding debt into equity (shares) in the company at a future date, typically at the next funding round. CLNs usually include a conversion discount or valuation cap that rewards early investors.

    Important: The information provided on this website does not constitute financial advice, investment advice, or a personal recommendation. All investments carry risk, including the potential loss of capital. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and may be subject to change. SEIS and EIS tax reliefs are subject to HMRC eligibility criteria and are not guaranteed. You should seek independent financial and tax advice before making any investment decision.

    Process

    How It Works

    A clear, structured approach from initial consultation through to a successful capital raise.

    01

    Initial Consultation

    We start by understanding your capital requirements, business stage, and objectives. Our advisors assess the most appropriate funding structure for your situation.

    02

    Structuring & Documentation

    We structure the offering — whether loan notes, bonds, equity, or a tax-efficient scheme — and prepare all necessary legal documentation, investment memoranda, and compliance materials.

    03

    What Our Clients Say

    Feedback from businesses we have worked with across capital raising mandates.

    "

    We engaged BDM to structure a £2.1m loan note issuance for our manufacturing expansion. Their approach was methodical — the investment memorandum was thorough, the documentation was watertight, and they managed investor relations throughout. We completed the raise within the timeline agreed at the outset.

    BDM guided us through our SEIS round at a critical stage of the business. They obtained advance assurance from HMRC, prepared all investor-facing materials, and ensured our documentation was fully compliant. Their understanding of the regulatory framework gave our investors confidence to commit.

    Having explored several routes to capital, we appointed BDM to lead our equity raise. They challenged our assumptions constructively, restructured the offering, and identified investors suited to our stage. The process was considerably more rigorous than we anticipated — and rightly so.
