Aldermore Bank is a UK challenger bank known for flexible criteria on asset finance, including commercial vehicle and HGV lending. Part of FirstRand Group, Aldermore has built its reputation by lending where mainstream banks are cautious - newer businesses, more complex credit profiles and non-standard assets. For truck finance, Aldermore is particularly worth considering for businesses that have been trading fewer than 2 years or have had historic credit issues.

Aldermore is a key lender in our panel for truck finance applications where mainstream lenders decline or where flexibility on trading history is required. We present every application to the most suitable lenders based on the applicant's specific profile.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Can Aldermore finance a truck for a startup haulage business?

Aldermore is more flexible than mainstream lenders on new businesses. They will consider recent start-ups with appropriate deposits, strong personal credit and evidence of trading (even if under 2 years). No guarantee of approval, but worth including in the panel submission.

What rates does Aldermore offer on trucks?

Aldermore's rates reflect their higher risk appetite - they are typically not the cheapest option for strong, established credits. The benefit is their willingness to lend where others won't.

Is Aldermore suitable for large fleet finance?

Aldermore is primarily an SME lender. For large fleet transactions (10+ vehicles), specialist lenders or Siemens Financial Services are typically more competitive and better structured.
