Most businesses generally need to attract money either from bankers or investors. To assess the viability lenders require substantial information, both historic and projected. As such, it is very difficult to raise finance without being asked to provide a business plan. Well structured business plans not only cover the financial data but also additional information relating to the non-financial resources of the business.
While the statutory responsibilities associated with small limited companies, including the need for a Company Secretary, has been reduced in recent years, there are still many statutory obligations which need to be met and frequently small companies do not have the in-house expertise to deal with the various requirements.
