About Business Enterprise Fund (BEF) | Loans & Finance for Small Businesses

Finance that backs Northern business. Too many brilliant business owners across the North are held back by postcode, industry bias, or a flat-out “computer says no.” We’re here to change that. We are a not-for-profit lender investing in founders across Yorkshire and The Humber, the North East, and the North West. Whether you’re just starting out or scaling up, we offer fair, flexible finance delivered with the human touch. In the last 13 years, we’ve invested £151.3m in small businesses, supported over 22,000 jobs, and added over £600m to the economy. Our funding includes: 1. Start Up Loans up to £25k (as a British Business Bank partner) 2. Small Business Loans up to £250k 3. NPIF II Smaller Loans up to £100k We reinvest our profits to fund more brilliant businesses. Because access to finance shouldn’t depend on who you know or where you're based. Let’s fund what’s next.
