Yes! We can help finance almost all business assets. This includes all the traditional ‘Hard Assets’ like vehicles and machinery but also includes ‘Soft Assets’ like IT and telephony and even commercial furniture.

A finance lease is a flexible funding solution that allows businesses to use assets without owning them outright. It’s a popular option for companies looking to preserve capital and manage cash flow effectively.

The lenders we work with offer finance leases for a variety of business-critical assets, including:

• Vehicles (cars, vans, and fleets)
• Plant and machinery
• Office equipment
• IT systems

If you're unsure, contact us to see if your required asset qualifies.

Depending on your needs, our panel of trusted lending partners could help you take out a range of different products, including:

• Hire purchase — this allows you to pay for an asset in instalments over a set period, typically at a fixed interest rate, and own it at the end of the term. Your repayments will cover both the original cost of the asset and interest.
• Finance lease — this allows you to lease a piece of equipment and use it over a period of time. Your finance provider will hold ownership of the asset, but you’ll receive exclusive use of it. Payments will cover the original cost of the asset and interest. At the end of the term, you can either renew your lease, or return the asset to the provider.
• Asset refinance — this allows you to raise capital using your existing assets as security, meaning you can borrow a lump sum, then make monthly repayments over a fixed term to pay it back. Any assets you put up as security will need to be owned by the business outright.
