Capital Raise Finance Against Assets You Already Own.
Capital raise finance is money raised against an asset your business already owns outright, such as a vehicle, a truck or a piece of machinery. The asset becomes security for new funding, and the cash is yours to use in the business. It is new borrowing: the business takes on debt it did not have, secured against an asset it owned free of one.

Step 1 of 5
Understand capital raise finance
Capital raise finance releases cash against an asset the business already owns outright, without that asset having to be sold.
The lender advances funds against the asset's value and registers an encumbrance over it as security. The asset stays yours throughout.
You keep using the asset exactly as before. What changes is that some of the value tied up in it becomes available to the business.
Why choose capital raise finance
Businesses often own equipment worth a great deal while having very little cash on hand. A capital raise is what turns some of that value back into cash.
It avoids the alternative of selling a working asset to fund growth, which usually means buying something similar back later at a worse price.
The funds are not tied to a single purchase, so they can go toward whatever the growth plan actually requires.
Deciding if capital raise finance fits
It fits where the business owns a substantial asset free of finance and has a use for the funds that will earn more than the borrowing costs.
If the asset still carries finance, a refinance that releases equity may be the more appropriate route to explore first.
There is more than one way to raise growth capital. Which one suits depends on the business, so it is worth comparing them before settling on one.
How to apply for capital raise finance
Identify the asset and confirm it is owned outright, then gather whatever shows its value and its condition.
You'll need your ABN, the trading history and a clear account of what the funds are for, because the plan is part of what is being assessed.
Your broker compares lenders and sets out the structures available in plain terms before you commit to anything.
Tips for capital raise finance
Be realistic about what the asset is worth to a lender rather than what it is worth to you. Those two figures are rarely identical.
Match the term to what the funds are being used for, so the borrowing does not outlast the thing it paid for.
Talk the plan through with your accountant before you commit, since releasing capital changes the shape of the balance sheet.
