Questions fréquentes

Do you finance projects outside the industrial sector ? Do you finance software, R&D, and trade receivables?

No. We focus exclusively on financing tangible industrial assets.

Soka Finance is deliberately specialized in industrial financing. This specialization enables us to deliver highly relevant, credible, and effective solutions alongside our financing partners.

What determines the cost of financing?

The cost of financing depends on several factors, including the nature of the asset, the structure of the transaction, the risk profile, and the level of flexibility required.

We work with a wide range of financing partners. Some offer pricing close to traditional bank levels, while others provide more flexible or complex structures, typically associated with higher expected returns.

How is Soka Finance different from a traditional broker?

A traditional broker focuses on finding the best bank financing for standard deals.

Soka Finance operates differently: we structure complex financing solutions using specialized alternative lenders.

Instead of simply comparing rates, we :

  • Design the right financing structure
  • Identify the most relevant lenders
  • Align the solution with the industrial project

This allows us to finance situations that are too complex or unconventional for brokers and banks.
