OUR STORY AND PURPOSE

quadrent-008-l

Making a difference in the world of equipment finance

Quadrent was founded in 2002 on a deep belief in positive change. Martyn and Tony saw an asset-finance industry that was out of step with their values and set out to build a better alternative: one grounded in trust, long-term relationships and a commitment to invest alongside customers in every transaction.

They centred the business on financing technology because they saw its enduring relevance to organisations and its power to improve how people work and live. From the beginning, Quadrent has taken a different approach, solving practical problems, delivering on its commitments and creating stronger financial and business outcomes for customers, at the same time as improving the lives of their employees and the communities we serve.

Growing the Quadrent business has come from a constant focus on the client’s wellbeing, a genuine interest in understanding people, and a knowledge of how to treat them well. It was this perspective that drove the definition of our core values of Knowledge, Commitment, Personality, and Quality.

Our mission

To deliver world-leading asset finance, product lifecycle management processes, and reporting tools that make life simpler.

In practice, this means designing funding and asset lifecycle solutions that keep technology current for our customers, while ensuring a meaningful proportion of that technology reaches communities who would otherwise go without.

Our values

These values are not words we made up for a website. They represent how we are different, because they are how we hold ourselves and each other accountable to build trusted, long-lasting relationships.

Together, these values guide how we balance commercial discipline with social ambitions that enable broader access to technology, so doing the right thing is built into the way we do business, not added on.

Despite significant change, our aim has always been the same

Quadrent has come a long way since 2002 and so has the world. Despite significant change, our aim has always been the same: to be different, simpler, and better.

  • 2007

    We opened a Quadrent office in Australia after demand from a number of New Zealand clients that also operated across the Tasman and wanted our tailored funding solutions for their sites overseas.

  • 2016

    We started Fridgehire to serve an industry that was burdened with high capital costs and asset management inefficiencies. It was a simple belief that refrigeration should be easier, cheaper, and better for the planet.

  • 2017

    The leasing rules changed, and we brought to market a world-leading IFRS 16 reporting and compliance tool, LOIS Leasing, to make life simple. In 2025, LOIS Leasing became a standalone company to enable sharper focus on product innovation and customer success. LOIS Leasing now helps its customers manage almost $55bn in leases.

  • 2021

    We reshaped our core leasing services and launched the Quadrent Green Lease product to repurpose and extend the life of assets, reducing e-waste by up to 10 times and helping customers donate ex-lease laptops to the communities where we live and work.

  • 2022

    Quadrent partnered with Groupe BPCE to provide equipment vendor finance solutions to commercial clients in Australia and New Zealand, specifically for larger constructions projects requiring yellow goods such as cranes.

  • 2023

    We partnered with our first school in New Zealand, Tangaroa College, to close the digital divide at their school by providing suitable ex-lease laptops to their classrooms. Within two years of providing devices to Tangaroa College, attendance rates improved from 65% to 85%, and achievement rates at ‘Merit’ or better improved by 163%.

  • 2025

    Quadrent combined with another proud New Zealand-owned organisation, Purpose Capital, to create Sustainable Finance, a joint venture to help accelerate decarbonisation and renewable energy development opportunities by providing efficient and scalable debt financing solutions.

  • 2026

    The Quadrent Group of companies is Australasia’s leading and most trusted asset financier and lease accounting software provider. We continue to look ahead, seeking new ways to help clients and grow as a team of dedicated professionals who have a single common purpose.
