Research and Development (R&D) reliefs support companies that work on innovative projects in science and technology. It can be claimed by a range of companies that seek to research or develop an advance in their field. It can even be claimed on unsuccessful projects.
Through this scheme, you can claim up to 25% of your R&D-related expenditure if you are profit-making and 33% if you are loss-making. For a project to qualify, you must have attempted an advancement using a methodical approach through uncertainty and at your own financial risk. There is often a lot of misconception surrounding what qualifies for this incentive, which is why Walmer exists.
Accessing different sources of funding can be a daunting procedure, so our experts are here to help make your lives easier.
A grant is a fund given by an entity – often a public body, charitable foundation, or a specialised grant-making institution – to an individual or another entity (usually, a non-profit organisation, sometimes a business or a local government body) for a specific purpose linked to public benefit. Unlike loans, grants are not to be paid back.
An R&D tax loan is an alternative financing option, allowing companies to use their pending or future R&D tax claims as collateral for a short-term business loan. Delays are common within the UK R&D tax industry, increasing the time the claiming company has to receive their cash tax benefit.
Walmer Finance was established with the vision to become the UK’s leader in lending against R&D Claims. We work with eligible companies to advance their R&D Tax claim benefit upon submission to HMRC. We understand the significance of the benefit that we’re able to obtain for you and want to ensure that your business’ activities were not hindered by the usual HMRC claim process time.
