Financing new
                  purchases

To buy or not to buy?

There will come a time when you need new equipment, business tools or vehicles. But buying new assets outright by calling on your business reserves or taking out a loan is only one option.

 

There's also a variety of leasing and hire purchasing solutions which could help - and we'll be happy to take you through each one of them step-by-step.

Things you'll need to consider are:

What's the working life of the asset? Generally, the longer it is the more benefits there are in owning it; the shorter it is, the more attractive a lease option becomes.

How's your cashflow? Leasing and hire purchase allow you to set affordable monthly rentals.

The tax implications. If you 'own' the asset (outright or through a hire purchase agreement), you can claim allowances against your taxable income. However, even if you don't own it, the company leasing the equipment to you can claim and may pass some of those savings on to you.

As ever, your Relationship Manager is on hand to answer these and any other financing questions you may have.
