WELCOME !

Thanks for dropping in for some hopefully great business info and on occasion some hopefully not too sarcastic comments on the state of Business Financing in Canada and what we are doing about it !

In 2004 I founded 7 PARK AVENUE FINANCIAL. At that time I had spent all my working life, at that time - Over 30 years in Commercial credit and lending and Canadian business financing. I believe the commercial lending landscape has drastically changed in Canada. I believe a void exists for business owners and finance managers for companies, large and small who want service, creativity, and alternatives.

Every day we strive to consistently deliver business financing that you feel meets the needs of your business. If you believe as we do that financing solutions and alternatives exist for your firm we want to talk to you. Our purpose is simple: we want to deliver the best business finance solutions for your company.

An ABL Business Line Of Credit Can Earn Your Company The Working Capital It Needs . Asset Based Lending Simply .. Works.




Why ABL Reverses The Cash Flow Plunge And Allows Working Capital To Soar


OVERVIEW – .Information on the ABL line of business credit in Canada . Asset based solutions deliver on cash flow and working capital when you need it the most



Can the ABL asset based business line of credit really reverse the cash flow ' plunges' that companies inevitably face? We think it can, and by the way it’s been proven by the thousands of firms in Canada and the U.S. that utilize this method of revolving credit facility for their business needs. Here's why... and how. Let's dig in.

It always helps when the business owner/manager understands the basics. So the asset based credit line for business simply a revolving credit finance solution that allows your company to draw down on working capital needs based on a high margin against inventory, equipment, receivables and real estate if that plays into the equation.

While for any type of business finance it always helps if a company has a track record a true ABL solution works for almost any type of size and firm that has assets. While transaction on the lower end of the scale might be in the 250K range there is virtually no upper limit and true asset based facilities many times run into the many millions of dollars. The only prerequisite - assets!

This method of finance a business line of credit is directly comparable to Canadian chartered bank facilities. Whether it’s the bank or your asset based lender you grant a secured position on all business assets, and then borrow against them. But in the case of the ABL facility you actually do borrow against all of those assets - daily!

The immediate question that comes to mind is of course the difference in choosing between the bank and the ABL solution. Typical ABL structures provide borrowing against 90% of receivables, 50-70% of equipment true value, and typically 50% on inventory. If your company owns real estate it is easily thrown into the borrowing mix.

It is therefore obvious to see some of the key tangible benefits of the ABL line of credit. If we had to succinctly summarize them it would be as follows:

- All business assets become borrowing power
- funding is immediate
- As you business grows the facility grows in lock step
- Easier to qualify than bank financing
- Similar to bank credit facilities you only pay for what you are borrowing at any given time
-There is not contact with your clients in a true ABL asset based solution


So the simple difference - you're borrowing on business assets and revenue growth - not cash flow ratios and covenants and debt to equity borrowing constraints. It's that covenant freedom you have been looking for - as some put it - it allows you to weather those business ' bumps in the road'.

It's easy to see why this innovative financing solution is gaining more traction everyday. In effect it has become ' respectable'! Improper perceptions occur in the marketplace when people think ABL is a last resort type of financing. In fact it’s the first resort for some of the largest companies in Canada and the U.S.

While asset base lending usually, but not always, is more expensive, the fact that you're turning asset, generating profits, and not taking on term debt often makes a lot of sense.

If you wish to reverse the cash flow plunge, letting working capital soar, seek out and speak to a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business financing advisor who can assist you with your ABL needs.
