What do we consider when evaluating your loan application?

Company and business idea
We must know your company’s risk profile and business idea and the sector it operates in. We review the outlook for your market and sector.
Purpose of the loan
We must know the purpose of the loan (eg purchasing equipment or office furniture). One reason for acquiring funding may be to cover ongoing expenses.
Company's financial standing
We review your total profit and balance sheet when evaluating the profitability of your business to ensure that credit does not affect your profitability.
Ownership and management
We must know your company structure; for example, if the company is part of a group, who owns the company and who runs the company.
Guarantee
We require a guarantee or security for the loan to minimize the risks to both parties. The guarantee can be eg immovable property, stock or receivable (floating charge).
