Supporting growth companies

The Business Growth Fund (BGF) was established in 2011 to address a funding gap for SMEs in the UK post the financial crisis. It has an evergreen balance sheet of £3bn, making it one of the most important and most active funders of smaller companies in the UK.

BGF’s model is to help growing companies with patient capital and proactive support. BGF has a network of offices across the UK and Ireland to ensure that it has access to a broad range of companies.

Paul Stevens is Head of Quoted Investments at BGF. We discuss BGF’s approach to investing, the issues in UK capital markets and the importance of the AIM market in enabling companies to scale. Listen to the podcast below:
