Private lending is the practice of individuals, family office or private institutions providing loans to borrowers directly, without involving traditional financial institutions such as banks or credit unions at customised terms agreed to by both parties.

Private lending offers more flexibility in terms of loan approval criteria and repayment terms compared to traditional lending sources, who are more rigid with their requirements. 

Private lending is an attractive alternative for borrowers who may not qualify for loans from traditional lenders due to factors such as limited or irregular income, delays in tax lodgement, timing & complex structures.

Every private debt solution is tailored to the particular scenario, because we know that no two transactions are the same.

The purpose of funds must be wholly or primarily for business and/or investment purposes.
