WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF ASSET FINANCE?

Finance Lease

Finance Lease is a type of asset finance that enables you to rent and use an asset over an agreed period of time without having to buy it straight away. Our minimum and fixed-term contracts can vary based on the business needs and cash flow. During this period, the title remains with White Oak.

Hire Purchase

Hire purchase is another type of asset finance. With Hire Purchase we will pay for the asset upfront and provide the asset for lease. You can use the asset over an agreed period while spreading the cost over the life of the asset and paying in installments. During this period, the title remains with White Oak but it passes to you at the end of the term for a nominal fee.

Sale & Leaseback/ HP Back

We purchase assets from you, releasing funds back to the business and lease back to you on a Finance Lease or Hire Purchase agreement. You can use the asset you’ve leased from the asset finance company over a period of time and pay it in instalments.
