Scott Wishart from agricultural loan broker NZAB joins us to discuss how farmers can take more control of their banking outcomes. 

Scott shares practical advice on how to become “bank-ready,” what information to gather beyond budgets and financials, and how a well-prepared farmer can unlock a better deal. 

He also explains the value of engaging multiple lenders, the role of non-bank lenders, and common mistakes farmers make when approaching their bank. 

You’ll hear the steps farmers can take today to strengthen their position, drive competition, and ultimately secure better deals.
