There are two primary sources from which businesses can secure loans: traditional bank loans and non-bank lenders, commonly known as private credit.
Benefits of Equipment Financing
Loans can provide the capital needed for expansion, whether it's opening a new location, hiring additional staff, or launching a new product line.
Managing daily expenses can be a challenge, especially for businesses that have cyclical or seasonal cash flows. Loans can help smooth out these fluctuations.
For big-ticket purchases like equipment or real estate, loans can spread out the cost over time, making it more manageable.
Most business loans work on the principle of amortization where the borrower repays the loan amount in structured, periodic installments. Various factors such as interest rates, loan terms, and repayment schedules can vary widely depending on the lender and the type of loan.
To ensure that a loan serves its purpose in fostering growth, businesses should strive to achieve a Return on Investment (ROI) that exceeds the cost of capital. For instance, if a loan with an annual interest rate of 8% enables a project with an ROI of 15%, the net benefit justifies the cost.
The cost of capital for a business loan is determined primarily by the interest rate and any additional charges or fees levied by the lender. Bank loans usually offer a lower interest rate, ranging from 4% to 13%, while non-bank lenders may charge upwards of 7% to 30% due to the increased risk they undertake.
Automation and data analytics are revolutionizing the lending landscape, making the process quicker and more user-friendly.
There’s a growing trend in loans being linked to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance metrics.
Businesses are increasingly leveraging their assets like invoices, inventory, and machinery to secure financing.
