NEL Fund Managers Limited, is an independent fund management company which provides financial products to small and medium-sized businesses based in the North East of England.

Originally set up in 1989 to provide unsecured loan funding to regional businesses, NEL is the region’s most active business investor and has since managed eleven funds with a combined value of over £90m, including the new £20m Finance for Business North East Growth Fund.

We have invested in over 200 regional companies in the last five years alone, with hundreds of companies and thousands of jobs in every part of the region being supported. You can read more about the positive impact made by our investments here.

Both early and late stage capital investments are available from NEL, according to investees’ needs; and alongside large numbers of investments in traditional industries, an increasing number of technology investments have also been made in recent years as the region’s knowledge economy has expanded and thrived.

NEL is always looking to support North East companies with strong management teams and robust business plans for the future.  For an initial discussion of your firm’s investment requirements, please call 0845 111 1850 or visit our contact us page
