Is Your Business Eligible for Finance?

How many years have you been trading for?
Businesses trading for under two years may find it difficult to obtain vehicle finance. This is because it is difficult for the finance provider to objectively gain insight into the business and the potential lending risks involved. New businesses may be required to submit 3 months business bank statements, management accounts (if available) and a director's guarantee (ltd companies only) to support your finance application. In some cases, a larger initial rental may also be required.
