NatWest Group has launched a new lending proposition for high growth businesses to enable them to lever off the value of their Intellectual Property (IP).
High growth businesses generally own few tangible assets, but can be rich in IP and intangible assets. These businesses can find it difficult to use their assets as collateral to secure growth funding, especially when compared with firms holding more conventional assets. This has led to a large growth funding gap for fast-growing, asset light businesses which is estimated to be as much as £15bn annually.
