What is Asset-Backed Funding?
Asset-backed funding is a financial solution where businesses can use their assets as collateral to secure larger amounts of finance. Whether it’s equipment, software solutions, inventory, or accounts receivable, these assets hold value that can be leveraged to obtain the funding your business needs. With Merchant West, you can optimise your balance sheet and secure appropriate funding to leverage your asset base and improve your working capital, fuelling your growth and expansion.

When you choose asset-backed funding from Merchant West, you’re leveraging the value of your assets to secure a loan. Here’s how it works:
Asset Evaluation
We structure a financing solution with the appropriate credit enhancements and security (in the form of assets or cash flows) that facilitate the funding. We assess the nature, value and recoverability of your assets wholistically to determine how much financing you can access.
Flexible Loan Structuring
We structure a financing solution tailored to your needs, with flexible terms and competitive rates. Whether you need a term loan or a revolving line of credit, we have the right asset-backed funding solution for you.
Collateralization
Your assets act as collateral for the loan, providing security for both you and the lender. Each transaction is bespoke and supported by various structural features and credit enhancements of which the assets are a critical component.

Frequently Asked Questions
This type of funding can leverage a wide range of assets as collateral. Commonly used assets include equipment, software, vehicles, inventory, and accounts receivable. The key is that the asset should hold significant value and be easily transferable to the lender in case of default.
The valuation process is a crucial step in asset-backed funding. At Merchant West, our team of experts will conduct a thorough assessment of your assets to determine their current market value and value in a recovery scenario. This process may involve appraisals, market comparisons, and an evaluation of the asset's condition and potential for depreciation. The accurate valuation ensures that you receive the maximum possible funding based on the true worth of your assets.
Asset-backed funding offers several advantages over traditional loans. Firstly, it allows businesses to access larger amounts of capital by leveraging valuable assets. Secondly, since the loan is secured by collateral, lenders are more likely to offer competitive interest rates and terms. This type of funding also provides faster approval times compared to unsecured loans, enabling businesses to meet their financial needs promptly. Additionally, businesses can retain ownership and control, as opposed to equity financing, which often requires giving up a portion of ownership.
