Time and attendance systems can help small and medium enterprises improve their operational efficiency

Small and medium businesses that want to improve their overall operational efficiency can now access the funds to do so as HSBC has launched a £10 billion lending fund to support small and medium-sized enterprises in the UK.

The £10 billion fund is the largest package of support to be announced by HSBC for UK SMEs, with the aim to ensure ambitious companies in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are able to access the funds they need to grow their businesses, a news report has revealed.

HSBC’s head of UK commercial banking, Ian Stuart says the launch of the £10 billion fund signals the bank’s aspiration to lend more to UK SMEs of all sizes, whether they are a start-up or established business, focused either on the domestic market or looking to trade internationally.

‘Right across the UK there is a wide range of innovative new and established SMEs, proving that location is no barrier to a great business idea.

‘This fund underpins our support by putting SMEs in a stronger position to be making investments that will stimulate local economies and create more jobs.’
