Considering private and non-bank funding

Illustrative example — not a real client result

Understanding a facility's costs, conditions and repayment plan.

The challenge

A commercial borrower wants to explore funding outside traditional banks for a specific property or business purpose.

The approach

  1. Clarify the purpose, amount, proposed term and security available.
  2. Review total costs, default provisions, legal terms and the proposed repayment or refinance strategy.
  3. Compare options only where appropriate and obtain independent legal advice before committing.

Example outcome

This example focuses on understanding the obligations and risks of a proposed facility before deciding.

Private and non-bank facilities can carry materially different costs and risks. Availability does not establish suitability.
