Small business equipment finance is funding for enterprises that do not meet standard lender criteria due to the size of their operation. They may be newly started and not have the required financial documentation or have traded for 12-24 months. A small business may have been established for a long time but only operate on a small-scale and have low turnover, below lender approval minimums. They may be private companies with 1-2 directors and have little assets to provide as loan security. Depending on the time the business has traded and the type of industry, the operation may not have strong financials or a strong asset base.
