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.

Working Capital Strategy And Structure . The Fix Is In For Business Cash Solutions







More Choices Than Kinds Of Apples .
Working Capital Solutions


Information on working capital strategy in Canada . The proper structure of cash flow solutions creates business cash solutions for operations and growth.




Working Capital Strategy?
Clients don't believe us at first, but believe it or not when it comes to business cash flow the Canadian business owner /manager has almost as many choices as there are types of apples! Understanding key issues as well as getting the right working capital structure is key . Let's dig in.

Does the owner/finance manager really have to be over worried when it comes to cash flow availability concerns? When you don't address those issue what in fact can happen? Lot's actually. We're the first to not want to focus on the negative and downside but cash flow unavailability leads to:

Employee issues

Potential downsizing of your business

Inability to grow and expand


Working capital structure and tools come from your ability to plan, analyze and making the most of using your assets to monetize capital. Doing these sort of things right often puts you well ahead of competitors, who we can assure you have their own problems!

If there's any good news it’s the fact that growth and asset growth allow you to access more cash flow solutions. But you have got to know how to do that, what amount and type of financing you need and what the cost of some of those solutions are.

The essence of working capital strategy and structure is knowing the amount of liquidity in your business. One of the greatest ironies of busines is that a company can have abundant and significant assets, but if you can't convert those into cash, or monetize them with the right finance solutions ... well... you know the outcome of that.

So it’s the management of your working capital accounts (cash on hand or available, inventory, A/R) that allows you to stay in ' positive mode '. Oh and by the way, those payables on the other side of the balance sheet can drastically affect your overall working capital and business cash success. Managing payables to the max in a positive manner affects cash flow from your operations!

Business owners in the SME sector quickly realize that your overall cash flow success drastically affects your sales, buying, planning, and asset acquisition. When you think of it all of that essentially becomes your whole ' cash conversion ‘ story - in a term we use often its really the story of how 1 Dollar flows through your company, from start to finish .

Remember also that your current or future lenders are looking at your cash flow ability all the time. Their evaluating their risk relative to the amount you are borrowing.



There are some classic stories around the loud buzzers that go off when a working capital strategy doesnt work. How can you address the right cash flow structure?

Best solutions include, but are not limited to:

A/R Monetization
Inventory financing
Purchase Order Financing
Sale leaseback strategies
Asset based non bank revolving credit lines
Commercial bank lines of credit
Securitization
Working Capital term loans
Merchant Advances
