Equipment loans

What type of product is it?

The equipment loan is a profitable and tax-efficient way for entrepreneurs to acquire assets (new or used equipment). This product is aimed at companies wishing to acquire new equipment.

What are the special features of this financial product?

  • Amortization of equipment financing is usually linked to the useful life of the asset acquired. This period generally ranges from 3 to 7 years.
  • The percentage of financing generally authorized for equipment varies according to its value and ease of resale. Less-specialized equipment aimed at a broader customer base (easily resold) will benefit from a larger contribution from lending institutions. Generally speaking, the financial contribution is between 30 % and 100 % of the value of the equipment to be acquired.

What are the advantages of this type of financial product?

  • This type of product offers the possibility of a capital vacation for a period that can be negotiated with the lender.
  • This product can help you control your cash flow and preserve your liquidity for working capital, for example.
