Brokers Sponsored by Brokers News Asset Advantage launches broker survey to assess SME funding needs Published: 10th June 2025 Share Asset Advantage is launching a new broker survey aimed at gathering insights into the current challenges and trends facing commercial finance brokers when sourcing funding for UK SMEs. Set to go live at the NACFB Commercial Finance Expo on June 11th at the NEC in Birmingham, the survey will examine topics such as funder appetite, sector-specific demand, and evolving client requirements. It will also explore the rising use of finance in business acquisitions, including management buy-outs (MBOs) and buy-ins (MBIs). The initiative is intended to help map the current commercial finance landscape and inform a better understanding of how broker and SME needs are evolving. Brokers attending the Expo can take part in the survey at stand W27, with a prize draw open to those who complete it on the day. Gary Thompson, Sales Director at Asset Advantage, said the survey plays an important role in identifying market priorities. “It enables us to clearly understand the demands and needs of brokers and the SMEs they are supporting.” The survey is open to all commercial finance brokers and can be completed online at: https://form.typeform.com/to/ebHOKMZN Lisa Laverick Editor - Asset Finance Connect Sign up to our newsletter Featured Stories NewsThe Broker Hub expands into embedded finance NewsRetiring owners driving demand for business acquisition funding NewsExpansion and MBOs drive surge in business acquisition funding Brokers
