How accreditation works
The process for requesting Asset Finance lender accreditation depends on whether you are a dedicated Asset Finance broker or a broker who writes other loan types.
Dedicated Asset Finance brokers
If you are a dedicated Asset Finance broker (meaning you do not write residential or commercial property loans), you can request Asset Finance lender accreditations directly through the Accreditation app in Mercury.
Brokers who are not dedicated Asset Finance brokers
If you are not a dedicated Asset Finance broker, you must request Asset Finance lender accreditation through your Partnership Manager (PM) or by emailing [email protected].
Note: All requests are reviewed by the CAF team before the request is submitted to the lender.
How accreditation requests are assessed
All Asset Finance accreditation requests are reviewed individually. Approval criteria vary by lender and may include experience, loan volumes and business focus.
Important: Some Asset Finance lenders have strict volume requirements and may only accredit brokers who operate exclusively in Asset Finance.
Approval is not guaranteed, and access to lenders may differ between brokers.
