What is Asset Finance?

Asset financing helps your business access the equipment, vehicles, or machinery it needs—without paying the full cost upfront. Instead, you spread the cost over time with manageable repayments, preserving your cash flow for other priorities.

Whether you're purchasing new tools, upgrading a fleet, or leasing specialist equipment, asset finance gives you flexible funding tailored to the asset and your business needs.

What are the interest rates on asset finance?

What is a balloon payment?

A balloon payment is a lump-sum payment that’s due at the end of a loan term—commonly used in equipment finance, business car loans, and chattel mortgages. It lowers your monthly repayments but will increase the amount of interest you pay over the course of your loan.

Can I get asset finance as a sole trader?

If I choose to lease an asset, what happens at the end of the agreement?

At the end of the lease, you typically have the choice to return, upgrade, or buy the equipment. However, not all leases are created equal, so make sure to read through your contract to understand your options.
