Can a loan be used to buy equipment in the UK?
Yes, the loan can be used to purchase equipment in the United Kingdom. Moreover, most banks have special loan programs for equipment (medical, restaurant, construction, etc.)
There are several ways to finance the purchase of equipment:
- Hire Purchase. The essence of this method is as follows - the company pays for the equipment in parts, but it can only take possession of it at the end of the term (that is, with full payment)
- Rent. The bottom line is that the company leases the equipment for a fixed period, but ownership remains with the lender. This is a good opportunity to use the equipment while paying for the rent
- Business equipment loan. This is an ordinary loan of money from a bank or financial company to purchase equipment with the obligation to return the funds within a certain period (credit term)
Thanks to the above-mentioned methods of financing, the company has the opportunity to obtain equipment for its activities.
Analysts of the Bankchart site have collected all offers for equipment financing, we recommend that you read the terms and conditions carefully, compare several programs, and only then submit an online application.
