But navigating the maze of banks, non-bank lenders, and finance products feels overwhelming when you should be focusing on running your business.

Business finance isn't just about access to capital—it's a powerful tax strategy that can save your business thousands (or hundreds of thousands) per year.
Eligible businesses can immediately deduct the full cost of equipment purchases up to certain thresholds (check current ATO limits). This reduces your taxable income in the year of purchase—a massive tax saving for growing businesses.
Even if you don't qualify for instant asset write-off, you can claim depreciation deductions over the effective life of the asset. For example, a $100K excavator depreciated over 10 years saves you ~$30K in tax (at 30% company tax rate).
All interest payments on business loans (equipment finance, cash flow loans, commercial property) are 100% tax-deductible. If your business pays $10,000/year in interest at a 30% tax rate, that's a $3,000 tax saving.
With chattel mortgage finance, you can claim the GST back on equipment purchases immediately (if GST-registered), improving cash flow. The lender finances the full cost including GST, but you reclaim the GST in your next BAS.
Scenario: Your business buys a $110,000 excavator (inc. GST) using chattel mortgage finance.
Total tax savings: ~$46,000 on a $110K purchase. The excavator's effective cost after tax is just $64K—a 42% reduction. This is why smart business owners use finance instead of paying cash.

Common questions about business finance in Australia
NIK Finance brokers arrange all types of business finance: equipment finance (chattel mortgage, lease, hire purchase), unsecured cash flow loans, invoice financing/factoring, commercial property loans, business overdrafts, and trade finance. We also specialise in asset finance for vehicles, machinery, technology, and medical equipment. Whether you need $10K for a ute or $5M for a warehouse, we compare 100+ lenders to find the best rate and structure.
It depends on your business's revenue, profitability, and assets. Unsecured cash flow loans typically range from $5K to $500K. Equipment finance can go from $10K to $5M+ depending on the asset. Commercial property loans start at $500K and can exceed $50M for large projects. NIK Finance brokers assess your financials and match you with lenders offering the highest approval amounts for your situation.
Not always. Unsecured business loans (up to $500K) don't require asset security—approval is based on revenue, profitability, and credit score. Equipment finance is secured by the equipment itself, so you don't need additional collateral. Commercial property loans are secured by the property. Invoice financing is secured by the invoices. NIK Finance helps you choose the right structure to minimise security requirements while maximising borrowing capacity.
All interest on business loans is 100% tax-deductible, reducing your taxable income. Equipment purchases may qualify for instant asset write-off (deduct the full cost immediately) or depreciation deductions over the asset's life. Chattel mortgage structures let GST-registered businesses claim back the GST on equipment purchases in the next BAS. For example: a $110K excavator (inc. GST) via chattel mortgage lets you reclaim $10K GST immediately, deduct the full $100K cost if you qualify for instant write-off, AND claim interest deductions. These tax savings can reduce the effective cost of equipment by 30%-40%.
Unsecured cash flow loans and invoice financing can be approved in 24-48 hours with the right documents. Equipment finance typically takes 2-5 business days (lenders may need to inspect the asset or verify supplier details). Commercial property loans take 5-10 business days due to property valuations and due diligence. NIK Finance brokers expedite the process by submitting complete, accurate applications to the right lenders first time, avoiding delays and re-submissions.
