The launch coincides with the adoption of Alfa‘s operating system for digital funding and ‘decisioning’ technology for brokers and vendors. 

Novuna Business Finance, the UK’s fifth-largest asset finance provider with an asset portfolio of over £1.5bn, is also upgrading its existing Mercury system for front-end users which are linked to new auto underwriting and tolerance rules and will allow the business to make more informed and faster funding decisions, the business said. 

Geoff Maleham, managing director of Novuna Business Finance, said: “Our enhanced digitally-led application processes ensure better credit decisions for brokers and vendors whilst leveraging the funding capability of our new multi-national parent company.”
