How To Apply

To apply you'll need to complete the on-line application form and upload your business plan, financial information and other supporting documentation. Your application will be judged solely on its business merits, the chances of success, growth potential and any jobs likely to be safeguarded or created.

If successful, the Fund will invest in your business, you can then utilise the money to put your development plans into action.

As with any investment, we will be seeking a return in the medium-term, you should therefore expect the Agency to realise it's investment either by way of a trade-sale, a management-buy out, or public offering.

Your application will be managed by YFM Private Equity Limited whose registered office is Saint Martins House, 210-212 Chapeltown Road, Leeds LS7 4HZ. Registration Number 2174994.

YFM Private Equity Limited is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority.
