Is your Australian business looking to acquire new equipment, vehicles, or machinery to fuel growth and efficiency? Navigating the world of asset finance can seem complex, understanding your options is crucial for smart investment decisions. At Add Finance, we specialise in providing tailored asset finance solutions that empower businesses like yours to access the vital assets they need without straining cash flow.

What Exactly is Asset Finance?

Imagine your business equipped with the latest technology, a modern fleet of vehicles, or specialized machinery – all contributing to increased productivity and profitability. At its core, asset finance is a way for businesses to obtain the use of an asset without paying the full purchase price upfront. Instead, you make regular payments over a set period. This can free up valuable working capital that can be used for other crucial aspects of your business.

Why Choose Asset Finance for Your Business?

There are numerous compelling reasons why Australian businesses across various industries turn to asset finance:

• Avoid large upfront capital outlays.

• You may be able to claim tax deductions on interest payments and depreciation depending on the type of finance and the asset.

• Stay competitive with the most up-to-date technology and equipment.

• Flexible repayment structures.

• Asset finance typically does not affect your existing bank credit lines, allowing you to keep those for other business needs.

• Some asset finance options can lead to ownership of the asset at the end of the term.

Exploring the Different Types of Asset Finance

• Chattel Mortgage

This is a popular option where your business takes ownership of the asset from the outset, and the lender takes a mortgage over it as security for the loan. Once the loan is fully repaid, the mortgage is discharged.

• Hire Purchase

With a hire purchase agreement, you hire the asset from the lender for a set period and make regular payments. You don't own the asset until all payments have been made, including any final option fee.

• Finance Lease

A finance lease is essentially a rental agreement where you have the use of the asset for a specified term. The lender retains ownership, and you make regular rental payments. At the end of the lease, you may have the option to extend the lease, purchase the asset at its residual value, or return it.

• Operating Lease

Similar to a finance lease, but typically for shorter terms. The lender retains ownership, and the lease payments are treated as operating expenses.
