Associate Director @Eft Finance Limited

Exeter, GB

EFT Finance is an independent credit broker, founded in 2010 by Henry Hemsley and Austin Smith, two long serving business finance professionals. EFT arrange funding for businesses of all sizes whether they be young, expanding or growing. EFT has representation across the UK through an experienced team of asset finance professionals - I joined them in May 2022 because of their enviable reputation. Through many years in senior management roles within finance companies Henry and Austin made strong connections in the banking and asset finance industry and this has helped to build an extensive list of funders. This large number of funders means that capital intensive businesses such as vehicle hire companies, who may already have several active credit lines, can gain access to additional credit lines when existing ones have reached their limit. However, we also welcome the opportunity to fund ‘one off’ purchases.The strong relationship EFT has with their funders (most at Senior Management level) contributes to an exceptionally high ‘Yes’ response to finance applications, very often where others have failed.The EFT ethos is one of providing honest and fair assistance (even to the detriment of EFT Finance). All customers are treated equally. Customer service matters to us. The industry knowledge and practical guidance from each of the EFT team is regularly said to be a ‘breath of fresh air’. Don’t let the lack of finance hold the growth of your business back. Contact me today.
