Leverage against new or old equipment.

Funding can be structured around the asset, your business and how you intend to use it — whether you're acquiring something new or releasing capital from equipment you already own.

02 Lease
03 Refinance
04 Upgrade

Finance the assets that keep your business moving

Asset finance can be used across a wide range of industries, from a single commercial vehicle to specialist machinery or a complete equipment upgrade.

Vehicles & Transport

Cars, vans, HGVs, trailers and specialist commercial vehicles used throughout your operation.

Plant & Machinery

Construction equipment, manufacturing machinery, agricultural equipment and other productive assets.

Technology & IT

Computers, servers, communications equipment and technology required to operate and scale.

Office, Retail & Hospitality

Furniture, commercial kitchens, fit-out equipment and operational assets for customer-facing businesses.

Medical & Specialist

Clinical, diagnostic and specialist equipment where keeping technology current can be crucial.

Renewable & Green Assets

Energy-efficient and renewable technology designed to reduce operating costs and modernise the business.

How would you like to finance the asset?

The right structure depends on whether you want to own, use or release capital from the asset.

01

Purchase

Acquire the asset and spread the cost over an agreed term.

Rather than paying the full purchase price upfront, payments are made over time, helping your business preserve working capital.

Best suited where Long-term ownership is the goal
02

Lease

Use the asset without necessarily purchasing it outright from day one.

Depending on the agreement, options at the end of the term may include returning, extending or potentially purchasing the asset.

Best suited where Flexibility is important
03

Refinance

Release capital already tied up in assets that your business owns.

Vehicles, machinery or equipment with an existing value may potentially be used to raise additional working capital.

Best suited where Cash is tied up in existing assets

05 Medical & Specialist
06 Renewable & Green

Vehicles & Transport

From one commercial vehicle to a larger fleet, transport assets are one of the most established uses of asset finance.

Funding may be considered for new or used vehicles depending on age, value, usage and the wider business circumstances.

Vans HGVs Commercial cars Trailers Fleet vehicles

Plant, Machinery & Equipment

Productive equipment can represent a significant investment for construction, manufacturing and engineering businesses.

Asset finance can spread that capital requirement across a term more closely aligned to the productive life of the equipment.

Excavators Forklifts CNC machinery Production lines Agricultural equipment

Technology & IT

Technology can become outdated quickly, while the upfront investment required to modernise a business can be substantial.

Financing can help spread the cost while allowing the business to implement the technology it needs now.

Servers Computers Telecoms Networking Specialist hardware

Office, Retail & Hospitality

Customer-facing premises can require substantial investment in fit-out, furniture and equipment.

Finance can help businesses invest in the assets required to launch, refurbish or expand without absorbing the entire cost immediately.

Commercial kitchens Furniture POS systems Gym equipment Fit-out assets

Medical & Specialist Equipment

Specialist businesses often rely on expensive equipment that directly determines the services they can provide.

Finance may help practices and specialist operators invest in equipment without requiring the full purchase price from existing cash reserves.

Diagnostic equipment Dental equipment Clinical equipment Specialist machinery

Renewable Energy & Green Assets

Investment in energy efficiency can reduce operating costs while modernising the business.

Depending on the technology and transaction, finance may be available for a range of renewable and energy-efficient business assets.

How Asset Finance Works

The process can be straightforward once the asset, supplier and funding requirement are understood.

01

Identify the Asset

Establish what you're buying, its cost, supplier and intended use.

02

Review the Business

The lender assesses the business, asset and proposed funding structure.

03

Finance Agreed

Terms are agreed and the transaction is prepared for completion.

04

Asset Put to Work

The supplier is paid and your business begins using the asset.

01

Preserve Cash

Avoid committing the full cost of an asset from working capital on day one.

02

Spread the Cost

Structure payments over an agreed term rather than one large upfront expenditure.

03

Invest Sooner

Put productive equipment into use without waiting to accumulate the full purchase price.

04

Release Capital

Existing assets may potentially provide another source of business liquidity.

Finance that fits the asset and the business.

We help identify suitable funding routes based on the asset you're acquiring, the business circumstances and what you're trying to achieve — then coordinate the application through to completion.
