Asset based lending can even be arranged against less common assets like marine and aviation equipment. Franchises are another where shop fitting and refurbishment can be included in a lease. Asset Finance is essentially a simple and fast way for business to obtain the funding they need for purchasing assets to run and grow their businesses. Will I be accepted ? In general most businesses can qualify for Asset Financing. The amount you can be eligible for and the interest rate that you pay will depend on the value of the equipment. Your company financial history and credit history will also be taken into consideration.
