The Challenge


Manufacturing in the aerospace industry demands precision engineering and state-of-the-art machinery. However, these high-value assets can sometimes tie up significant amounts of capital, limiting a company’s ability to invest in other areas such as R&D, expansion, or workforce development.


Our client, a leading light aircraft manufacturer, faced this exact challenge. While their CNC machinery was essential for production, the capital locked within these assets was restricting their financial flexibility. They needed a cost-effective way to release funds without disrupting their operations.


The Solution: Asset Refinance


Asset refinance allows businesses to unlock the value of existing equipment, providing immediate liquidity while spreading the cost over time. We worked closely with our client to evaluate their CNC machinery and structured a refinance agreement that suited their needs.

Here’s how we made it happen:

  • Valuation & Structuring: We assessed the current market value of their CNC machinery and structured a refinance deal that maximized their available capital.

  • Competitive Financing: We secured a refinance deal with a five-year repayment plan at an attractive 4.4% interest rate, ensuring manageable monthly repayments.

  • Seamless Process: Our expert team facilitated the entire process, ensuring minimal disruption to their manufacturing operations.


The Outcome


By refinancing their CNC machinery, our client was able to release £165,000 in capital. These funds were reinvested into key business areas, including:

  • Enhancing their production capabilities

  • Expanding their research & development initiatives

  • Strengthening their supply chain resilience


Why Asset Refinance?


For many businesses, especially in capital-intensive industries like aerospace manufacturing, asset refinance provides a smart financial strategy to improve cash flow without taking on additional unsecured debt. Benefits include:

  • Immediate capital release: Unlock funds tied up in equipment

  • Manageable repayments: Spread costs over a fixed period

  • Competitive interest rates: Access lower-cost finance compared to traditional loans
