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.

Canadian Business Financing - Tips on Securing Financing For Your Business














Your Mission Should You Choose To Accept It? Sourcing the Right Business Financing Loans And Cash Flow Solutions For Your Business











Business financing is a challenge anytime, from the entrepreneur's dream of a small start up to major corporate needs.

The current economic downturn makes the above noted challenge even more daunting. Whether a firm is established and doing well, or experiencing financial distress or working capital or growth needs - the challenge remains the same.

What is the 'challenge'? Simply speaking it is identifying the proper financing solution , determining whether the solutions is a short term fix or a long term solution , and then, most importantly executing with experience the proper financing solution.

The business owner must be able to properly position the current shortcoming as both an opportunity and risk appropriate.

Proper financing begins with the owners and his advisors ability to identify the current financing challenge. The owner and advisors must provide a compelling reason for the lender to assist in an appropriate financial solution.

Who are these 'advisors'? Typically they are internal financial staff, i.e. CFO/Controller, etc, or alternately third part accountants or a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business Financing Advisor with a track record of success



Business Financing is complex - However at the end of the day the financing solutions are actually very well defined - They are as follows:

Leases and Term Loans

Working Capital Loans

Asset Based Lines of Credit

Bank credit lines

Non bank credit lines

Receivables purchasing

Inventory Lines of Credit

Purchase Order Financing

Commercial mortgages

Tax Credit financing


The business owner, and their advisor, should have a very clear focus - That focus is as follows: What is the best financing solution on either a short term or an intermediate/long term basis for the business. Does the business owner or executive clearly understand all the financial options available - what are the criteria for these different options - what are the rates/terms and structures for each option.
