No Personal Guarantee Invoice Finance Uk FAQ

Can I get UK invoice finance without a personal guarantee?

Yes. Skipton Business Finance, Aldermore, IGF Invoice Finance and Close Brothers all offer no-PG options where the business turnover, debtor concentration and ledger quality justify it. Typical thresholds: £500k+ annual turnover, audited or filed accounts, no single customer over 30% of ledger, 12+ months of trading. Below those thresholds, PG is usually required.

Why do most invoice finance providers require a personal guarantee?

Personal guarantees protect the provider against fraudulent invoicing, ledger misrepresentation, and rapid director-led trading down. PGs aren't usually called for normal trading-loss reasons; they're called when fraud or misconduct is involved. Established providers waive PGs for businesses where these risks are demonstrably low (audited accounts, long trading history, strong debtor spread).

Best no-PG invoice finance for £1m+ turnover UK?

Aldermore and Close Brothers are the strongest choices for no-PG facilities at £1m+ turnover. Both will replace the PG with an all-asset debenture from the company, which gives the provider security over company assets without director personal exposure. Skipton Business Finance offers similar terms for businesses with strong audited financials.

Can selective spot factoring be PG-free?

Yes, mostly. Hydr, Triver, Sonovate and Kriya (formerly MarketInvoice, now Allica Bank) typically don't require personal guarantees on selective spot factoring because they take risk on the specific invoice rather than the business. The trade-off is higher per-invoice fees (1.5-3% vs 0.5-1% on whole-book facilities) but no director personal exposure.

How do I negotiate out of a personal guarantee on invoice finance?

Three levers: (1) demonstrate audited accounts with 2+ years of clean trading, (2) show debtor concentration is balanced (no customer over 30% of ledger), (3) offer alternative security (all-asset debenture, intercompany guarantee, increased reserves). Best to negotiate at facility renewal rather than initial setup. Most providers will reduce PG cap to a fixed amount (e.g. £100k) rather than fully waive on first ask.

Do fintechs always offer no-PG invoice finance?

No. Fintechs (Hydr, Triver) typically waive PGs on small selective spot factoring (sub-£50k advances). On larger committed facilities, fintechs request PGs the same as banks. Sonovate offers no-PG to recruitment agencies on contractor invoices because the contractor invoicing pattern is well-understood and the underlying timesheet data is strong evidence of work done.
