Operating Lease
An operating lease is an agreement that allows for the use of an asset but does not convey ownership rights of the asset. Operating leases are considered a form of off-balance-sheet financing—meaning a leased asset and associated liabilities.
No Doc
A No-Doc loan refers to a no documentation loan where the lenders do not require borrowers to provide documentation of their income or do not require much documentation.
Cash Flow
A cash flow loan is a type of unsecured borrowing that is used for day-to-day operations of any business. The loan is used to finance working capital and is paid back with incoming cash flows of the business.
Refinancing
A refinance occurs when the terms of an existing loan, such as interest rates, payment schedules, or other terms, are revised. Borrowers will try to refinance when interest rates fall, or they qualify for a lower rate loan. Refinancing involves the re-evaluation business’s credit and repayment status to obtain a better commitment.
Chattel Mortgage
A Chattel Mortgage is primarily used in the event where an asset is being purchased for business use. It is structured similarly to a regular mortgage, where the lenders provide funds to purchase the asset (known as a Chattel) and register their security interest on the Personal Property Securities Register (PPSR) for the life of the loan. When all loan repayments have been made, you will have a full ownership of the asset.
