Why Finance Your Plant & Machinery?
Spread the cost of essential plant and machinery rather than tying up significant capital in an upfront purchase.
Acquire the machinery your business needs to take on new contracts, increase capacity or improve productivity without waiting to build up cash reserves.
Depending on the asset, finance structure and your circumstances, investment in qualifying plant and machinery may benefit from available capital allowances and other tax efficiencies. Speak to your accountant for advice specific to your business.
Spread repayments over an appropriate term, helping align the cost of the machinery with the income and productivity it generates.
Keep cash and existing credit facilities available for wages, materials, stock, new projects and day-to-day operating costs.
Access hire purchase, leasing and other funding solutions for new or used plant and machinery, subject to lender criteria.

“When you contact Maximus Leonis Capital, you’ll deal directly with me from the initial conversation through to completion. No call centres, no bots, no unnecessary handovers — just someone tenacious and accountable in your corner, focused on finding the right route and getting the deal done.”
Mario D. Sarno
Founder & CEO, Maximus Leonis Capital
Built by a business owner, not just another broker.
Most brokers talk about lenders. We talk about the business decision behind the funding.
I founded Maximus Leonis Capital because I know what it feels like to sit on the other side of the table — weighing up risk, timing, cash flow, growth and reputation while trying to make the right decision for the business.
Having built, financed and exited my own company, I understand that business owners, developers and suppliers often need more than a finance quote. They need clarity, confidence and someone who can show them there may be another way to move forward.
Maximus Leonis Capital was created to provide straight-talking, relationship-led finance support for people who want practical guidance, trusted funding routes and a more personal approach. Whether a client is buying equipment, funding a development, unlocking working capital or helping their own customers access finance, the aim is simple: to help them make informed funding decisions and move forward with confidence.
This is not a call-centre approach. It is founder-led, commercially aware and built around long-term relationships.
You're dealing directly with someone who has built, financed and exited a successful business.
Whole-of-market funding from banks, specialist lenders and independent funders.
No call centres. No handovers. Just straightforward commercial advice.
Finance designed around your business rather than forcing your business around standard lending criteria.
