Investor Finance / Business Acquisition Coaching
Steve’s been in the financial services world since he started work post university, and it was a sector which he climbed to the top of becoming Chief Risk Officer of a Bank in Malta and subsequently sat on the Board of a Peer-to-Peer business lender as well as a short stint in the Executive team of a Peer-to-Peer property firm. He’s been an Approved Person through the FCA in the UK and the MFSA in Malta, and has hands on experience surrounding the regulatory aspect of raising money through private investors.
If you’re confused by what you can and can’t say or do, or you need some coaching in order to go out and win over private investors, then Steve can help.
Alongside his work with NC Real Estate, Steve owns equity in small businesses here in the UK. One of these companies he owns outright, and learnt how to do that using very little of his own capital by completing some of the business buying training you’ll likely be familiar with.
Those courses and masterminds are useful, but they also cost tens of thousands of pounds to purchase if you want to learn absolutely everything, and hundreds or in Steve’s case thousands of hours to implement.
An alternative approach might be to lean on Steve’s five plus years of experience of these courses, joint venturing with the people who run one of them, and his network of contacts who enabled him to acquire a company in 2022 using way less money than you probably think you’ll need to acquire a business from a retiring owner.
Steve won’t just work with anyone on this, for one thing because those contacts of his are highly respected busy professionals and his reputation is something he won’t put at risk.
In order to see if working together would be a good fit, he encourages NCRE members to get on a 15 minute call/interview. We encourage you to come prepared to that with what you’re looking to achieve, in what timeframe, and with what capital to put towards acquiring a small business in the UK.
