Helpful guides, advice and
business tips from our team of industry experts

Can HMRC access my bank accounts? 

HMRC can access personal or business bank accounts, but only with reasonable justification. They may use Financial Institution Notices (FINs) or powers under the Direct Recovery of Debts to obtain bank data or recover tax owed, often without needing court or taxpayer approval. Access typically follows suspected tax discrepancies, fraud, or unresolved debt.

Grow a small business: From solopreneur to building a team

To grow your small business from solopreneurship, assess when your capacity and financial stability indicate it’s time to hire. Start with roles that complement your skills and prioritise cultural fit. Then, develop leadership skills like delegation and empathy to build a collaborative, scalable team.

A guide to financial health checks for SMEs

A business financial health check allows SMEs to assess their performance by reviewing key financial metrics like cash flow and profit margins. Running these checks regularly provides businesses with greater financial control and allows them to detect issues early and plan confidently for sustainable growth.
