RURAL ASSET FINANCE is a specialist direct lender to British rural businesses to help them fund, diversify and future-proof their farm-based business.

RAF was founded in 2019 with a specific purpose to provide direct funding to the British farming community following the UKs exit from the European Union and its Single Market.

Our teams decades of individual farming knowledge and experience means we truly understand the challenges faced by todays farmers in this new landscape. We empathise with the choices many face about their future whether that means continuing and expanding their traditional farming activities, pursuing environmental land management schemes, investing in state-of-the-art agtech or diversifying into innovative different revenue streams.

We support farmers and agricultural businesses to move forward with confidence, building a future sustainable for years to come. From combines to caravans, straw handling to solar panels, fodder beet to fishing lakes whatever field our customers are in, we can help.

RAF works with our customers to help their business take the right direction for them. As a non-bank lender, we can be flexible organising, facilitating and structuring the most suitable business loans and/or other asset financing facilities for each individual customer.

But although we take a modern approach to finance, our own business is built on good old-fashioned customer service. We understand farmers and farming and the importance of rural communities, and we understand business. We visit our customers, we build long-term, friendly, face-to-face trusting relationships and stand side-by-side with them on their journey.

And uniquely, we have all the skills required to deliver everything we promise in-house. From fund management through credit and legal, Rural Asset Finance is a one-stop shop of professionals with years of agricultural experience building the professional, yet personal relationships required to make things happen.

Rural Asset Finance backs innovation and sustainability to help rural businesses and their communities thrive into the future. Above everything else, Rural Asset Finance is always on the side of the farmer.
