Why Evcorp

The same deal, a better outcome.

Sponsors who engage Evcorp before approaching lenders consistently achieve higher approval rates, tighter pricing and better terms. Here is why.

01.

Right structure for tax and cash flow

Chattel mortgage vs operating lease vs finance lease materially changes your tax position and balance-sheet treatment. We work with your accountant on structure before approaching the lender.

02.

Bank + non-bank + captive panel

Major bank rates are often beaten by manufacturer captives (Caterpillar Finance, Komatsu Finance, John Deere Financial) or specialist non-banks. We test all three on every mandate.

03.

Used and refurbished

Many bank policies cap used-equipment finance hard. We know which non-banks and specialists will write used yellow goods and at what residual.

04.

Portfolio facilities

For sponsors building a fleet across multiple acquisitions per year, we negotiate revolving or master facilities — once approved, draw against pre-agreed asset categories without re-applying.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions — Fleet & Equipment Finance

What is yellow goods finance?
Yellow goods finance refers to asset finance for heavy construction and earth-moving equipment — excavators, bulldozers, graders, loaders and similar machinery. It is structured as a chattel mortgage, hire purchase or finance lease, with the equipment as security. Evcorp arranges yellow goods finance for construction, mining and civil contractors.
What structures are available for fleet and equipment finance?
Evcorp arranges chattel mortgage (ownership from day one, tax-effective for GST-registered businesses), hire purchase (ownership at end of term), finance lease (off-balance-sheet option) and operating lease. The right structure depends on your tax position, cash flow and whether you want ownership or operational flexibility.
When should I arrange equipment finance — before or after ordering?
Before ordering — ideally before placing a deposit. Finance approval before commitment means you know your rate, term and structure before you are locked in. Arranging finance after a deposit or delivery date is set creates pressure that limits your options. Evcorp can turn around indicative terms within 24–48 hours of mandate.
