About Allica Bank

Allica is the UK’s fastest growing company - and the fastest-growing financial technology (Fintech) firm ever. Our purpose is to help established SMEs, one of the last major underserved opportunities in Fintech.

Established SMEs are the backbone of local communities - representing over a third of our economy - yet have been largely neglected both by traditional high street banks and modern fintech providers.

About Cashflow Finance

Having already achieved significant success in the commercial mortgage and asset finance markets, Allica launched an innovative new Growth Finance product in 2023. This delivers working capital funding with facility sizes between £1m-£10m and is principally an asset-based lending product.

We now plan to expand our product capability with the launch of a cashflow finance solution which will meet the funding needs of growing established, profitable businesses who do not have tangible collateral available to offer in support.
