What is asset finance?.

Asset finance is one of the most commonly used types of business funding, providing companies with the flexibility to acquire essential equipment and assets without the need for large upfront capital expenditure. Whether you’re looking for finance for equipment, vehicles, or specialist machinery, asset finance allows you to spread the cost over an agreed timescale through manageable instalments.

As a trusted asset finance company, we help businesses access tailored funding solutions that align with their financial strategy, ensuring that growth and investment are supported without compromising cash flow.

Flexible Funding Solutions for a Wide Range of Assets

Asset finance is highly versatile and can be used to fund nearly anything a business requires, from cars and vans to highly specialised manufacturing and engineering equipment. Our scope extends across:

  • Large-scale industry
  • Green energy projects, such as solar panels and energy-efficient equipment
  • Releasing capital from existing assets through asset-based loans

If you’re looking for asset finance in the UK, we work with many lenders to structure funding solutions that suit your business’s unique requirements.

Structured Finance to Support Business Growth

Choosing the right type of funding is crucial. In most cases, businesses benefit from a blended approach that combines different finance products to align with their broader capital expenditure plans. Factors such as asset type, lifespan, tax considerations, and accounting needs all play a role in structuring the most effective financial arrangement.
