National Finance + Loans (NFAL) attributed its best-ever month to its strategic entry into the broker sector and the success of its simplified “tick and flick” model.
The asset finance brokerage reported a 78% year-on-year increase in settlements, spurred by the addition of broker support through its Brokahub portal and the appointment of Ebony Maxwell (pictured above left) as national sales manager.
NFAL’s success is closely tied to the launch of its bespoke broker portal, Brokahub, designed to streamline the process for brokers seeking to offer asset finance without the hassle of compliance and client fact-finds.
“As a pure-play asset finance specialist brokerage, we’re increasingly the referral partner for mortgage brokers who want to diversify without the complexity,” said Les Crowe (pictured above right), founder and general manager.
The portal allows brokers to access various asset finance options quickly and efficiently, creating new income streams with minimal effort.
Under Maxwell’s leadership as national sales manager, NFAL has extended its internal asset finance team and developed strong broker relationships.
Maxwell said that brokers benefit from personalised support throughout the entire deal process.
“The fusion of in-person expertise, backed by seamless, sophisticated technology, supports high approval ratios and repeat business,” Maxwell said.
As summer approaches, NFAL expects an uptick in personal leisure financing for items like boats, jet skis, and caravans.
“There’s a historic peak in enquiries for leisure goods as we move into the warmer months,” Maxwell said.
Business-related finance, however, tends to remain steady throughout the year, with ongoing demand for equipment and operational growth financing.
Established in 1998, NFAL has evolved into a market-leading asset finance specialist with 20 employees.
The company provides consumer and commercial finance across various asset classes. Recently, NFAL won the Fintelligence award for Best Brokerage with Less Than 10 Brokers, and its broker Cruz Blanchett was honored as Best Commercial Broker.
