Asset finance refers to a range of financial products designed to help individuals and businesses acquire the assets they need without paying the full cost upfront. This could include vehicles, machinery, technology, or other valuable items. Rather than purchasing these assets outright, asset finance allows you to spread the cost over time, making it easier to manage cash flow and maintain financial stability.
Asset finance is crucial because it enables you to access essential assets that can drive growth, improve efficiency, and enhance your lifestyle or business operations. For businesses, it allows for investment in new equipment or vehicles without draining cash reserves, ensuring that operations can continue smoothly. For individuals, asset finance can make it possible to purchase necessary items like cars or equipment without the financial strain of a lump-sum payment.
By spreading the cost over time, asset finance helps you manage cash flow more effectively.
Stay competitive by upgrading to the latest technology or equipment without the need for large upfront costs.
Depending on the structure of your finance agreement, there may be tax advantages, such as the ability to claim interest or depreciation.
A Top Up allows you to use the equity in your home to fund significant expenses without needing to apply for additional loans, which might come with higher interest rates or stricter terms.
Asset finance options are tailored to your needs, offering flexibility in terms of repayment schedules and structures.
This allows you to hire the asset while paying it off over time. Once all payments are made, ownership of the asset transfers to you.
You lease the asset for an agreed period, with the option to purchase it at the end of the lease term.
Similar to a finance lease, but you return the asset at the end of the lease term instead of purchasing it.
A loan structure where you make smaller payments throughout the loan term, with a larger 'balloon' payment at the end. This can be beneficial for managing short-term cash flow.
Particularly popular for vehicle finance, this option allows you to take ownership of the asset upfront while the lender holds a mortgage over the asset until the loan is repaid.
