Cash Flow Finance

When it comes to growing your business, there are many challenges along the way and managing your cash flow is one of them.

Creating compelling, value adding products and services and funding stocks and supplies are just a few of the issues you may face, and we understand that banks are often unable to provide finance solutions that meet your business’s growth needs.

There are facilities available to support these growth strategies, including cash flow finance/debtor funding solutions.

Our business finance brokers based in Perth will be able to explain how you can easily manage your cash flow through varying cash flow finance solutions that suit your business’s needs.

Get in touch to see how you can easily manage your cash flow through varying solutions that suit your business’s needs.

Surety Bonds

A Surety Bond is a viable alternative to bank guarantees or level of credit, which is alternatively improving the level of liquidity of your business by freeing up bank lines for other possible banking requirements.

Having a Surety Bond doesn’t just free up capital, it frees up security and uses the business’s balance sheet strength, as opposed to property equity or dollar-for-dollar cash.

Most businesses that require a bond or bank guarantee are mainly those in the contracting industry, but the product can be used in a number of industries, including:

• Construction
• Engineering
• Energy
• Project finance deals
• Infrastructure
• Telecommunications
• Support Services
• Transportation
• All other sectors with a bond requirement (other than financial guarantee)

If you don’t want to tie up equity or cash which could be used in the business, talk to us to see if you qualify for a surety bond. It is a great product to help growing businesses.

Get in touch to speak to one of our Finance Executives about how your business may benefit from Surety Bonds.

Funding of Significant Change in Business

If you are a business owner and you are looking to grow it is crucial that you identify the right company to grow with and secure the appropriate funding.

Funding of significant change in your business is usually a complex mission with various alternatives available to finance, hence requiring thorough planning.

Get in touch to find out more on how funding of significant change in business can help drive your growth.

Banking Facilities

Transactional banking facilities are a requirement for any business. Whether it be for their-day-to-day main trading bank account, cash management account, merchant facilities or payments, online banking solutions or international trade solutions.

Some businesses just need a trading account, whereas other businesses require a trading account coupled with online banking and then merchant facilities to allow their client to pay by credit card.

At Ledge, we can assist with your banking facilities in conjunction with your debt facilities and ensure they are tailored to the requirements of your business.

Ledge has access to the commercial, corporate and institutional areas of the bank and we position our client’s business and requirements into the appropriate area. They are given a personal transactional banking facility specialist which ensures that they receive the required level of service.

Equipment Finance FAQs

When buying equipment there are many options available to you when it comes to financing your purchase, however, these options are not always as straightforward as you think.

Here are some questions that our team of Finance Executives are regularly asked:

Novated Vehicle Leases

Traditionally, the provision of a company car has been restricted to employees who need to be mobile for business reasons. In many cases, private use of the vehicle is restricted and often the employee has little choice as to the make, model, or colour of the car provided.

The use of novated leasing can overcome these problems and provides additional benefits to both the employee and the employer.

For more information contact us and we will be happy to assist with your next novated vehicle lease.

Finance Leasing

At Ledge we source appropriate finance leasing for businesses who wish to buy equipment for the major part of its useful life.

How finance leasing works:

1. A leasing company (lessor or owner) buys the asset for the user (lessee or hirer) and leases it to them for an agreed period.

2. At the end of the leased term the lessee can choose to purchase the equipment for an agreed amount, continue leasing the asset, or assist in selling it to a third party.

To find out more on how you may benefit from finance leasing contact us today.

Import Facilities

Import facilities allow you to finance and pay for goods that are imported from your overseas supplier. These facilities are set up in the currency you deal in, saving you time and stress as you don’t have to convert into Australian dollars and there is no need to gamble on the exchange rates.

Avoid the delays and complications associated with trading overseas and contact your Ledge Finance Executive today or contact us here.

Rental / Operating Lease

A Rental/Operating lease differs from a finance lease as you pay to use the equipment over a fixed period but you don’t necessarily own it at the end of the term.

When it comes to the end of the leasing term you have the option to:

• Return the goods to the lender and either upgrade to new or walk away
• Extend the period of the contract with reduced payments, or;
• Purchase the goods at the current market value

Contact us today to see how you may benefit from a rental / operating lease.

Hire Purchase

At Ledge, we offer Hire Purchase finance which allows you to hire equipment / assets and you pay a fixed monthly repayment over a set period of time. Once the payment period is over and any final (residual value) balance paid off, you have complete ownership of the asset.

Get in touch to find out more about Ledge’s Hire Purchase service and how it can assist your business growth.

Chattel Mortgage

A Chattel Mortgage is a commercial finance product which provides funds for businesses to purchase an asset. The business has ownership of the car or equipment and the asset is used as the security for the loan.

Unlike a Hire Purchase or a Rental / Operating Lease, a Chattel Mortgage gives businesses ownership of the asset straight away, allowing them to pay off the loan using the income generated from the asset.

Want to know more about Chattel Mortgages? Get in touch and we will be happy to assist with all your questions.
