Anil Stocker
Anil Stocker is the co-founder and CEO of MarketInvoice. He co-founded the business in 2011 and has led the growth of the company since launch. Whilst working in financial services in his early twenties and spending time with many company CFOs, Anil realised how difficult it was for small businesses to raise the funding they needed to drive their business forward. His ambition is to use technology and data to completely reinvent how businesses go about financing their growth, and breathe fresh life into outdated financial products.
MarketInvoice has provided over £2.4 billion to companies across the UK. Businesses can choose from a range of working capital solutions, including invoice finance and business loans. MarketInvoice delivers fast, flexible funding to help companies do everything from pay suppliers and staff to launch new products and grow. In 2013, the UK government via the British Business Bank, began lending to businesses through MarketInvoice. This partnership has now seen more than £100m provided to businesses in the UK.
Anil is on the UK government-backed UK FinTech Delivery Panel to drive policy recommendations for the industry. He is a keen commentator on fintech, banking, business finance, and entrepreneurship. Anil read Economics at Cambridge University in 2006.
