    As you look around your business you will see the things that are essential to its day-to-day success. Depending on what you do this might include machinery, vehicles, or IT equipment.

    All these “assets “cost money and don’t last forever, so keeping things up to date and investing in new ones may often be on your mind.

    In addition, if you are planning to grow, develop new products or services, or become more efficient and sustainable, this might also mean you need to invest more.

    This is where asset finance can come in, a simple way to help you finance the assets you need to help your business thrive.

    Asset finance can allow you to borrow the money you need to either buy or lease the assets you want and looks to the value of the asset as the security for the amount you need to borrow.

    Hire Purchase, or HP, is one form of asset finance that can help you fund a new asset and ends with you owning it outright.

    In simple terms, HP works like this: you identify the asset you want, pay us a 10% deposit, we then buy the asset on your behalf and “hire” it to you over an agreed term, usually between 12 and 60 months. We then charge you monthly “rentals” that cover the remaining cost and the interest on the amount borrowed.

    When you have settled the total outstanding, you pay a small “option to purchase” fee and we transfer the asset to your ownership.

    So, you Hire it first and Purchase it at the end, hence Hire Purchase. If you don’t want to own the asset at the end of the term, there are other options, including Finance Lease.

    Lloyds Bank have been providing asset finance solutions for many years. We have a team of specialists on hand to ensure you get the right support and the help you need to choose the solution that is right for your business.
