More than 60. CW Asset Finance is a credit broker, not a lender, and searches a panel of over 60 funders to find the one whose criteria fit your business and the asset you are buying. We do not publish the individual lender names.
The point of a panel that size is coverage. Lenders have different appetites: the funder comfortable with a used tractor bought at auction is rarely the one comfortable with IT equipment or a commercial kitchen fit-out. A bank can only offer its own products on its own criteria, so if you do not fit, the answer is no.
We approach the funders most likely to say yes rather than applying everywhere, which keeps unnecessary searches off your file. Every decision still rests with the lender and depends on your circumstances.
