Cut the cost of asset purchase with fast and flexible business asset finance ...

  • Acquire assets without affecting your working capital

  • Finance equipment from the revenue they generate

  • Full use of the asset without paying all upfront

  • Refinance and release cash from existing assets

Cashflow is king in any business and having to fund the purchase of business assets can be a serious drain on working capital.

Most businesses at some time require equipment such as vehicles, computer systems, or equipment for a specialised industry. This is where flexible business asset finance can help you benefit from the asset needed without tieing up valuable working capital in it. It also reduces your exposure to the depreciation of the asset.

New printing market tapped with assistance of business asset finance facility...

asset finance case studyPrintmaster is a small printing company based in Yorkshire. The sales director identified a new and lucrative market for the business which required specialised folding and binding equipment. To support this equipment the existing IT based systems also needed updating.

Although the business had only been trading for ten months, a provider was sourced who was willing to fund the new equipment at a competitive rate. The provider took into consideration their healthy, although short, trading history and earnings forecasts.

Since diversifying into the new market the business has secured three substantial contracts and received repeat business from new customers.



Purchase new assets without affecting your working capital...

Asset financing has many benefits for businesses who want to manage cashflow and working capital in an efficient and productive way that benefits the bottom line. Some of the many benefits are:

  • Win new contracts or service key customers better 
  • Update old technology, equipment or vehicles
  • You won't have to pay for the assets upfront
  • Make maximum use of tax benefits from leasing rather than purchasing assets

A few of the typical assets we are able to finance include:

  • Machinery
  • IT & Office Equipment
  • Cars
  • Commercial Vehicles and Trailers
  • Contractors Plant

New contract secured thanks to asset finance...

asset financing loan case studyDirect Vehicle Automotive is a distributor of cars and vans for automotive companies and manages logistics including transportation of vehicles to and from dealerships.

The company was negotiating a large contract, but to secure the deal they had to expand their capacity and buy six vehicle transporters at a cost of £603,000. This represented a huge step-up in terms of the company's financing needs.

Finance for all six transporters was arranged on a Lease Purchase agreement. The company pays fixed monthly payments over a five year period and will own the transporters at the end of the finance term.



Refinance existing assets to release cash into your business...

Another application of business asset finance is the ability to release cash tied up in existing assets which can then be invested in other areas of your business.

The lender buys the asset from you and then rent's or leases it back to you over an agreed term. In addition, interest payments can be offset against your net profits.

Released funds can be used in lots of ways to benefit your business...

  • Cash injection
  • Fund product research and development
  • Buy another business
  • Hire extra staff
  • Purchase extra equipment
  • Finance share purchase or management buy-out

Food company funds product development from it's own assets...

asset financing case studyA natural health foods company needed to raise additional capital to invest in the development and marketing of new products

Following a valuation of the company's machinery one of our panel lender's was able to advance 100% of the asset values and provide the necessary funds by taking title to assets already owned by the company. The company received the funds just ten days after the initial enquiry.

The asset finance facility helped the company to develop new products, which resulted in increased turnover and profitability.



Top five questions about business asset finance...

If you have a question about asset finance that is not answered here, please complete the enquiry form on the contact us page.

  1. What is the advantage of leasing assets rather than buying them outright?
    Leasing an asset allows the cash that would otherwise be tied up in it, to be used to improve the profitability of the business. In effect, income producing assets, such as machinery, pay for themselves. Plus you can write off 100% of the lease payments against profits.

  2. What type of assets can be financed?
    You can lease almost anything, from assets worth millions to small business equipment.

  3. Can assets be finance if I have a poor credit history?
    Yes, we work with specialist lenders who can finance assets for those with a history of CCJs and defaults etc.

  4. What term will an asset be financed over?
    Typically, most asset finance lenders offer terms of 1-7 years depending upon the asset being leased etc.

  5. What happens at the end of a lease contract?
    You will be given the option to renew the lease or cancel it. If you cancel, the asset has to be returned to the lender or you may be given the option of purchasing it at a preferential rate.
