About the Author

Roy Hedges was a freelance writer, entrepreneur and consultant. His practical business guides drew on extensive hands-on experience of starting up, buying and selling businesses himself, ranging from retail grocery outlets to garages and property. His career as an entrepreneur peaked when a firm of bankers’ agents that he started grew into a finance company with seven branches, offering trade and consumer finance facilities, before becoming a bank. From this, subsidiary, insurance, property and leasing companies emerged. Later, he was to become one of the founding directors of London Trust Securities and Equilease Commercial Finance Ltd. Roy was also a director of a leading management consultancy and a board member of the leasing subsidiary of a major trade financier and invoice discounter.
