A NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR
Jon Wedge – Head of Financial Services
In 2023 the UK received more investment in fintech than the next 28 European countries combined. Working with new and established fintechs at BKL, we’ve seen how this is helping to energise the sector. This extends beyond London as a traditional powerhouse for financial services. A third of UK fintechs are outside the capital, with high-growth clusters in Birmingham, Manchester & Leeds, and Edinburgh & Glasgow.
Wherever you’re growing your business, BKL can help you solve the problems that may be holding you back. Do you know what documents to file and when? Will your budgeting and cashflow management enable you to run a business that stays efficient as it grows?
And it’s not just about being financially smart. Software, cybersecurity and environmental impact are other things that growing businesses should continually think about. Plus the specific challenges for financial services businesses, from FCA regulations and tax planning & reliefs to the investment landscape.
Understanding all these challenges will help you keep your ambitions on track, and grow with confidence in your business’s future.
On this page, you’ll get insights into the factors you should be considering, hear from our fintech specialists and other business experts for an extensive view, and learn how we can help.
