How to finance veterinary equipment with Finame
1. Choose the equipment: the first step is to define which equipment the clinic needs. It is important to carefully assess the clinic's demands and the type of service it offers, prioritizing the equipment that will deliver the greatest return in the short and medium term, such as diagnostic equipment that can boost the efficiency of care.
2. Select the supplier: once the equipment is defined, the next step is to select a supplier accredited by BNDES to sell equipment through Finame. It is essential to make sure the chosen supplier meets all the Brazilian manufacturing requirements and is properly listed in the BNDES registry.
3. Submit the documentation: after selecting the equipment and the supplier, it is time to gather all the required documentation. This includes the clinic's financial data, documents proving its tax compliance, and information about the equipment to be acquired. The documentation must be submitted to the intermediary financial institution that will handle the financing process.
4. Credit approval and contracting: with all the documentation in hand, the financial institution authorized by BNDES, whether a commercial or development bank, a development agency, a credit cooperative and so on, will run the credit analysis and, once approved, the financing contract is formalized. From there, the equipment can be acquired and delivered to the clinic, which begins paying the installments under the terms agreed in the contract.
4 precautions when financing veterinary equipment with Finame

2. Watch the payment terms: Finame's repayment terms are quite flexible, but it is important to make sure the clinic has solid financial planning to pay each installment on time.
3. Plan your return on investment (ROI): assessing the return on investment (ROI) is essential to ensure that acquiring the equipment will bring financial benefits to the clinic in the medium and long term. The equipment should generate enough revenue to cover the financing and still turn a profit.
