Why should Accountants partner with an Asset Finance Broker?

When businesses are looking for finance, their immediate reaction is to go to their bank in many cases. However, banks are generally slow, ask for way too much information, and rarely have little understanding of business and how it operates. Furthermore, once the finance commences, they offer no support in managing the contract. In other situations, customers use the dealer finance option to provide the finance, whose primary focus is to help sell the asset, not offer tailored finance solutions or long term support to the customer.

This is where the role of the Asset Finance Broker steps in! Professional asset finance brokers first listen to the customer’s needs and then find the best solution from the myriad of financing options, saving them time, money and ensuring they have access to the best products available. Then, once the finance commences, brokers help clients manage their finance contracts for the life of the term.

For this reason, many accountants partner with Asset Finance brokers to ensure their customers receive more personalised service & financial solutions with the best interest of the customer in mind. Further to this, with the Accountant and broker sharing required information behind the scenes, the Client does not need to run around requesting and collating documents for finance approval.

Therefore, the partnership between Accountant & Broker results in the Client accessing better finance solutions with significantly less effort from the Client. The broker can also provide all the required documents to the accountants, streamlining the bookkeeping and accounting for the Client’s asset purchase.
