I have liquidity problems
Any company, whatever its field of activity or size, can run the risk of having cash flow problems at any time during its activity. Before carrying out any project to create, take over or develop a business, the entrepreneur must necessarily ask himself the question of how to finance it. Proper financing of a project is one of the key conditions for its success. In parallel to the approaches to financial institutions, the entrepreneur can also have recourse to the Mutual-loan Guarantee Fund - Mutualité de Cautionnement, which can act as guarantor with approved credit institutions when the guarantees provided by the entrepreneur prove to be insufficient.
The Mutualité de Cautionnement provides key information on access to finance at its monthly workshops: Access to finance in 10 questions
Contact us by e-mail at cautionnement@houseofentrepreneurship.lu or by telephone on +352 42 39 39 878.
In addition to the reimbursable loans granted by the SNCI or Microlux, there is a wide range of public aid in the Grand Duchy, offered to companies and investors.
To find out more about state aid, the House of Entrepreneurship is offering a monthly workshop entitled ‘State aid for your business project’.
Other than external financing and state aid, the development of the business also involves optimising your cash flow and profitability. The House of Entrepreneurship, through its #ReAct programme, can help you to carry out this analysis.
