For a start-up!• Remember the focus for Buss1 is a new
business starting up.• Therefore the source of finance has to be
appropriate to the scenario.• Finding finance can often be a major problem
to an entrepreneur.

Raising finance for start-up requires careful planning
The entrepreneur needs to decide:• How much finance is required?• When and how long the finance is needed for?• What security (if any) can be provided?• Whether the entrepreneur is prepared to give up
some control (ownership) of the start-up in return for investment?

taking account of these key areas:
• Set-up costs (the costs that are incurred before the business starts to trade)
• Starting investment in capacity (the fixed assets that the business needs before it can begin to trade)
• Working capital (the stocks needed by the business – e.g. raw materials + allowance for amounts that will be owed by customers once sales begin)
• Growth and development (e.g. extra investment in capacity)

On the other side of the fence, small businesses complain they are being turned away or the rates on offer are extortionate. From The Scotsman – 18/10/11

• Venture capital = long-term, committed share capital. • Invested in exchange for an equity stake in the business. • The venture capitalist's return is dependent on the growth and
profitability of the business. This return is generally earned when the venture capitalist "exits" by selling its shareholding when the business is sold to another owner.
• Usually a specialist business NOT an individual

located in a deprived area.• There is strong competition for grant schemes.• Grants usually only cover a percentage of the
costs - matching funds have to be provided.
