“The relationship they have with their clients is based on understanding and trust and we are looking forward to a long and fruitful partnership based on those values which we have in common.”

“By partnering with RateSetter Business Finance, we are delighted to be able to give our clients access to the necessary funds to help them grow their businesses,” said Phil Sullivan, group finance director at TaxAssist Accountants.

“Small business owners will be able to concentrate on the day to day running of their companies without having to spend valuable time looking for a finance provider when they want to fund their growth.”

The move comes a few days after RateSetter launched its new partnership with Facebook chatbot Plum, which will connect consumers with the investment platform based on their savings patterns.
