About Us
Australian Business Finance Brokers — We're in Your Corner.
Shielded Finance is an Australian business finance broker built on one principle: your business deserves access to the right finance, at the right terms, without the runaround.
We work with a panel of 30+ lenders, banks, non-bank lenders, and specialist financiers, to find the right solution for your situation. We do the comparison, the negotiation, and the paperwork. You focus on your business.
“We started Shielded Finance because we saw too many great Australian businesses miss out on growth opportunities, not because they weren't creditworthy, but because they didn't know where to look or what they qualified for. We exist to change that.”
— The Shielded Team
What We Do
Shielded Finance acts as a credit intermediary, a broker that connects businesses seeking finance with our panel of lenders. We don't lend money ourselves. Instead, we use our relationships, market knowledge, and negotiating power to find you a better deal than you could typically access alone.
Our brokers specialise across the full spectrum of business finance, from unsecured working capital loans to complex equipment finance structures and invoice discounting facilities.
Part of the broader Shielded group of financial services companies, we bring the same commitment to transparency and client outcomes that defines all businesses in the Shielded family.
