Common Questions

Your Questions Answered

Speak to Our Team

Everything you need to know about Asset Finance in Newport.

What types of asset can be financed through Ichiban Capital in Newport?+

We can arrange finance for a wide range of assets including commercial vehicles, plant and machinery, manufacturing equipment, IT infrastructure, and medical devices. If the asset has a tangible value and a business purpose, we can likely find a funding solution for it.

How many lenders do you have access to for Newport businesses?+

Ichiban Capital has relationships with close to 350 lending establishments across the UK. This breadth of panel means Newport businesses benefit from genuinely competitive terms rather than a single lender's standard rates.

Is Ichiban Capital regulated by the FCA?+

Yes, Ichiban Capital is fully FCA-approved and operates as an independent finance broker. This means we are obliged to act in your best interests and are not tied to any single lender or product.

How long does asset finance approval typically take?+

Many decisions are returned within 24 to 48 hours of a complete application being submitted. Complex or higher-value facilities may take slightly longer, but we keep you updated throughout the process.

Can a Newport start-up or young business apply for asset finance?+

Yes, though lender criteria vary. Some lenders on our panel specialise in early-stage businesses and assess applications on asset value and future cash flow projections rather than long trading history alone.

What is the difference between hire purchase and a finance lease?+

With hire purchase you own the asset outright once the final instalment is paid, making it suitable for equipment you intend to keep long-term. A finance lease means the funder retains ownership but you have full use of the asset, which can offer balance-sheet and tax advantages.

Can I refinance assets my Newport business already owns?+

Absolutely. Asset refinance allows you to release the equity locked in existing owned equipment or vehicles and convert it into working capital. It is a popular option for Newport businesses managing cash flow without selling core assets.

Do you cover businesses in Cwmbran, Pontypool, and surrounding Gwent areas?+

Yes, Ichiban Capital serves businesses across the entire Gwent region including Cwmbran, Pontypool, Caerleon, Chepstow, and the wider South East Wales area. Our advice is delivered remotely or in person depending on your preference.
