? Questions

The things people ask
us most.

Straight answers on structure, timing, cost and eligibility. Something not covered? Our advisors are one message away.

What is the minimum facility size?

Our standard entry point is € 25,000 for equipment leasing and € 100,000 for factoring lines. Below that, our partner network offers straight-through digital products which we can refer you to.

How is pricing determined?

Every facility is priced individually against reference rates (EURIBOR / SONIA / base), the asset or receivable's risk profile, tenor, ticket size and any credit enhancement. We publish indicative ranges — actual quotes typically fall within them once underwriting is complete.

Do you fund start-ups?

We focus on operating businesses with at least 24 months of trading history. For younger companies we can consider factoring against contracted receivables from investment-grade counterparties.

Which jurisdictions do you cover?

ARC GmbH operates across 22 European jurisdictions. Cross-border facilities are documented under our master framework in English, with local legal opinions where required.

What documentation will I need?

Typically two years of audited accounts, latest management accounts, aged debtor and creditor listings, and — for asset finance — an invoice or specification for the equipment. Your relationship manager will send a tailored list after the first call.

Is my facility off-balance-sheet?

Operating leases and non-recourse factoring can be structured off-balance-sheet under most reporting frameworks. Under IFRS 16 most leases now sit on-balance-sheet — we'll walk you through the treatment before signing.
