the beginning
In 2009, Dave & Sue Chapman set up Midlands Asset Finance to support businesses access finance to help them grow.
Having worked for one bank for most of their banking careers, they didn’t want to have to say ‘no’ to a customer with a great business plan.
Now, working with a large panel of banks and alternative funders, our ethos is an appetite to say ‘yes’ to customers across all market sectors.
the early years
In our early years, we worked as a small team from The Ropewalk in Nottingham, largely working with clients across the Midlands.
As we evolved and brought in new experienced financiers, we invested in premises in Derbyshire, just off Junction 28 of the M1 making it easier for us to see more customers across more of the UK.
the growth period
We began our expansion in 2016 by bringing in specialist teams to provide sector expertise to businesses in construction, healthcare, property finance, agriculture, renewables, fleet management and vehicle leasing.
today
Today, given the business has a national reach, we are now known as MAF Finance Group.
The team of 44 supports SME and major corporate clients access finance across a wide range of products across every sector, arranging facilities (simple and complex) for new asset purchases and refinancing/restructuring existing debt.
