Who does Naismiths provide independent business review services for? 

We work closely with asset-based lenders, such as banks, challenger banks or investors looking to provide loans that need a detailed analysis of a company’s performance – or we can be appointed directly by a company wanting an expert review. 

We can produce an in-life audit when a company has a facility from a financier, assessing the ledger debt and the risks or trends involved. It is vital that investors know a company is not going to become distressed. 

We are on a panel of lenders qualified to carry out detailed reviews and audits.

What our clients say…

Naismiths provided expert project management and technical support in defect remediation and dispute resolution matters to conclude a long-running distressed project, which included a successful defence to an Adjudication.

The team worked closely with our legal team to provide clarity, direction and insight across an array of complex technical matters, incrementally de-risking our position and finally concluding in a settlement very much in favour of the client.
