Financing Your Business

Besides using the owner’s cash reserves, Financial Institutions can provide some of the funding for a business. Some of the forms of funding that Financial Institutions can provide are:

  • Bank Bill Facilities
  • Term Loans (Including mortgages over freehold property)
  • Debtor Factoring
  • Leasing / Including Novated Leasing
  • Hire Purchase Contracts
  • Chattel Mortgages

Which type of financing is appropriate will depend on factors such as:

  • Is the funding to finance cash flow shortfalls?
  • Is the funding to acquire specific assets?
  • Do the assets include Intangible assets e.g. Goodwill?
  • Is there a desire to only fund part of the assets purchase price?
  • Is there a desire for the finance to be fully paid out with the last payment?
  • What provides the most beneficial GST claim outcome?
  • Are tax deductions more accelerated under one form of financing than another?
  • The life span of the asset being acquired
