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.

Business Cash Flow Finance . Ready For The Unexpected Arrival Of Some Real World Financing Solutions






You Have The Right To Remain Silent On Business Financing .. But You Shouldn’t


OVERVIEW – Information on business cash flow finance in Canada . Integrate the cash is king philosophy into real world financing solutions





Business cash flow finance in Canada . When it comes to financing we are the first to admit (with some level of guilt) that the term ' cash flow is king ' is a tad... shall we say ' over used '.

But it's not a perfect world as we know, so simple spreadsheets and heavy duty analysis will not always deliver the financing you need. Real world solutions will, and we've got them. So let's dig in!

Not everyone is always going to agree with you, the business owner/ manager as to what cash flow financing solution is optimal for your firm. We think we simplify that a lot by talking with clients in terms of either asset monetization or debt financing.

Also, if your company has any level of financial distress, serious or otherwise some solutions are going to always be more readily available and meaningful and accessible than others. Typically here's where non bank solutions are going to work best. They include:

Sale leaseback strategies
Tax credit monetization
Non bank operation lines of credit (ABL’S)
Receivable and Inventory financing strategies
PO / Supply Chain finance


When you're capital constrained the challenges of growing a business seem even more severe. Even investing in R&D can seem like a really tough call at that point. One innovate solution to R&D investment and cash flow saving is by utilizing an ' A S P '. It's our acronym for a R&D Sred accrual line of credit - reimbursing you immediately for research expenses as you spend. Now that's innovative!

We're often asked if there is a difference between public company and private company cash flow solutions. Other than the disclosures required by firms that are public the solutions quite often are the same.

Asset acquisition and replacement is a big part of any finance challenge for businesses of all size. Whether you're constrained by cash flow, budgets, technology issues, etc the business owner/manager should always consider effect forms of lease financing for new or to be replaced assets. Don't forget also that used equipment can easily be financed these days, as the proliferation of things such as the internet allow lessors to easily determine market values of many types of assets, technology included .

So , in summary , yes you do have the ‘ right to remain silent ‘ about business financing possibilities revolving around growth, alternative forms of debt financing, and monetizing existing assets into business finance cash flow . A better choice? Seek out and speak to a
trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business financing advisor who can assist you with your financing needs .
