Frequently Asked Questions
We can arrange various working capital solutions including business overdrafts (flexible credit lines), invoice finance (access up to 100% of invoice value), short-term business loans (fixed amounts for specific needs), and trade finance (import/export solutions). Each option suits different business situations and cash flow patterns.
Range from $50,000 to $5,000,000+. Factors include business turnover, cash flow patterns, and trading history. Unsecured working capital is usually up to $500,000. Assessment is based on your demonstrated ability to service the facility and lender appetite. Facilities can often be increased as your business grows.
Approval timing depends on the lender, facility, documentation, and application complexity. We identify the preparation work and lender pathway before submission.
Security requirements vary by lender and facility size. Unsecured options are available for smaller facilities and strong businesses. Business assets (equipment, vehicles, stock) may be used as security. Property security may be required for larger facilities. We'll find the most suitable security arrangements for your situation. Lenders can also require a General Security Agreement over the trading entity.
Standard requirements include recent business financial statements, tax returns and BAS returns, 6-12 months of business bank statements to show cash flow patterns, aged debtor and creditor listing reports, and business information including trading history and customer payment terms. We'll provide a specific checklist based on your lender and facility type.
