Frequently asked questions...

How do you ensure your platforms are inclusive of all businesses no matter size, location, etc?

The weighted scoring that sits behind our algorithm is what drives your results. The model is calculated based on our combined growth KPIs, industry practices and real-time health and performance of the business against other client portfolios plus integration of verified third-party data sources.

Do you track internal metrics, such as creditor days, debtor days, EBITDA, etc?

You may have and track your own internal metrics to suit your organisation. We integrate these metrics and provide added value to what you already measure, so you can unlock even deeper intelligence for more informed decision-making, that is suited to your needs.

Is the usage of your model for working out loan repayment charges or investing costs?

No, we don’t get involved with your own internal credit risk and loan management costs. But we will work with you to develop efficient solutions, that help your processes and systems work better for you.

Does GFA measure growth performance specifically or does it measure internal ratios?

We focus purely on the business health performance of a business. But we use both financial and non-financial health models, to give you added value information and support your own internal financial risk processes.

Are you able to flag if a client is likely to become a bad lending or investment risk?

Yes, your custom-build platform will be able to tell you if a client is heading in the wrong direction, with insights as to why so you can put in the appropriate intervention ahead of time.

Where do you fit in when it comes to covenants, agreements with banks etc?

We are not involved in the actual terms of a capital, lending or investment agreement, therefore the creation of covenants would be under the discretion of your own relationships.

But we do stipulate that you make it mandatory for your clients to agree to be a part of the benchmarking and monitoring process, so they are on board with the support you will provide to them.

Can we customise the client insight that we receive, regardless of which service we choose?

Our custom-build solutions are integrated with our AI-powered benchmarking and monitoring algorithm. But all of our three solutions are tailored to your specific requirements, with resulting insights aligned with your needs.

What is the growth model you use and how robust is it?

Our algorithm design was built from direct question study of 6,500 high-growth SMEs, and academically verified with a globally reknowned business school over a six month period.

This was coupled with a 6 month data and questions analysis with Tier 1 financial lenders and a focus group of their customers. This is how we designed our unique growth AI appraisal model to predict business growth, and is continually refined through use.

Does GFA tell me if a business is growing and growing at what percentage against another business?

Yes, you can directly compare specific clients and their responses against one another in the platform. For instance, you may compare business health and performance by staff numbers, revenue, sector and 20+ other growth KPIs, plus unlimited intersectional comparisons to suit your needs.

Do you pull on external data sources, that we do not have to find oursleves?

Yes, we have access to over 30+ separate verified third-party data sources, integrated into our proprietary AI-powered inclusive data analytics model, to produce unique insights bespoke for every one of our client partners.

This gives you new information that you may not have been aware of, helping you to reduce risk, cost and improve business performance.
