Easy guide to bank finance for your farm

When seeking to raise funds for your farm, it is useful to follow a sample checklist for the range of information likely to be requested about your business.

For instance, when applying for bank finance, you need to provide sufficient, up-to-date information so the bank can make a fair and proper assessment of your application.

The bank generally does this in line with what are known as the “5 C’s” – Character, Capacity, Capital, Collateral and Conditions.
