What is Asset Finance and why use a broker?





Asset finance is a popular method of borrowing money by using a company's balance sheet assets as security to take out a loan. It's recognised as a quick and convenient way to manage working capital for your business.

Various assets can be offered as collateral, from cash to plant, machinery, and even buildings. For example, a food delivery company may use its vehicle fleet to secure finance against purchasing new premises or for new vehicles. The loan amount will be evaluated based on the value of these assets.


In general, there are two main types of asset finance. There is lending that is secured against existing balance sheet assets. Equipment finance is a loan or lease used to procure business equipment (any tangible asset apart from real estate.)


Depending on the type of asset finance, the borrower can take full ownership of the asset, return it to the lender or take out a lease on a newer model.
