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.

Small Business Government Loans In Canada : The Financing & Funding Option You Should Consider






When Do Gov’t Guaranteed Small Business Loans Make Sense ? Probably Right About Now!










OVERVIEW – Information on small business government loans in Canada . A financing and funding option for your consideration















Small business government loans in Canada
are a solid consideration for business owners/entrepreneurs. They typically best suit start ups, new firms, small firms, and growing firms in the SME (small to medium enterprise) sector. Why and, more importantly how does the government provide this financing, and are you eligible?




Although understood by some, but not all it's Canadian banks that actually are the delivery vehicle for small business loan financing. How then is the government involved, ask our clients? The answer - they guarantee a large part of the loan on your behalf, to the banks. A solid idea!

What we have observed over the years is that while the program is cast in stone as far as the govt is concerned the ' real world ' (that’s the one we toil in daily!) tells us that some practices and requirements certainly vary between our different chartered banks.
That's a hint by the way that you might benefit from an experienced advisor in this program!








So how do you receive the actual funds and what can they be used for? In Canada the program covers equipment, leasehold improvements, and even real estate. Note therefore - this is not a cash flow loan or working capital facility. The loan cannot be used for inventory purchases or consolidation of existing debt. That's important to know.

The loan is always structured as a term loan with fixed monthly payments, and by the way loan prepayment privileges are very generous.

Now that we have established who you are in fact approaching for govt loan financing it's critical to understand the information that will satisfy the criteria of the loan, often called the ' SBL ' loans. You're well armed if you can deliver on the following:

Business plan

Cash Flow forecast

Information on owner business background and personal financial credit history

Information on what you wish to finance - typically in the form of quotes from equipment suppliers or contractors in the case of leaseholds


Larger businesses unfortunately cannot apply, but the current threshold is 10M and under in annual revenue. We're quite sure that covers thousands of firms looking for funding... Typical loan terms are between 3 and 7 years. (The program actually specifies an amortization term of ten years to qualified candidates)

Cost ? Rates are very competitive and can be fixed or floating based upon the needs of the borrower.
If this type of business funding makes sense for your business seek out and speak to a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business Financing Advisor with a track record of success
who can make the funding under the Govt guaranteed business loan possible .
