WHAT IS ASSET FINANCE?

Asset finance is a flexible funding solution for agricultural businesses to access equipment machinery and vehicles they require to help their business grow, without compromising cashflow.

It can be used to fund both new and used assets including, machinery, vehicles, technology, and many other tools.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF ASSETS

Hard Assets: A hard asset refers to a tangible asset or resource with significant value. Examples of hard assets are vehicles, machinery, and plant equipment.

Soft assets: Soft assets are those generally differentiated from hard assets such as plant and machinery, vehicles, and commercial property, but which typically have little or no resale value, including I.T equipment, security equipment, catering equipment, and many more.

 

EXAMPLES OF EQUIPMENT WE HAVE FINANCED FOR AGRICULTURAL AND FARMING BUSINESSES

  • Tractors
  • ATV & RTV’s
  • Grassland Machinery
  • Cultivation Machinery

  • Buildings & Land

DIFFERENT TYPES OF FINANCE AVAILABLE

Hire Purchase

Hire Purchase (HP) is a type of finance that allows your business to buy vehicles or assets outright without having to pay the whole amount in one go. Hire purchase allows your business to spread the cost of your investment over the life of the asset, making it easier to budget.

Operating Lease

An Operating Lease is an agreement that would allow your business to use an asset for a fixed period, but you won’t own the asset. It is a form of “off-balance-sheet financing” that allows businesses to use assets over a fixed time period without the responsibilities of ownership.

Finance Lease

A Finance Lease is similar to an Operating Lease, in which you can use and benefit from an asset without ownership, but the main difference is that with a Finance Lease, the asset does appear on the balance sheet of your business.

Refinance

In addition to traditional asset financing, we can also offer refinancing or capital release. Refinancing your business assets is a quick and efficient way to access equity from your existing assets to use elsewhere within your business.

Commercial Lending

We offer a range of commercial lending solutions which include; business loans, commercial mortgages, bridging finance, development finance, commercial credit cards, and trade finance.

Green Finance

Make your business more sustainable with green energy finance agreements for solar panels, wind turbines and more from Anglo Scottish.
