Business Financing In Canada : Timing Your Loans & Funding Needs For Maximum Success In Capital Solutions














Thinking Of Testing The Water On Business Financing Solutions ?



OVERVIEW - Information on business financing in Canada . Issues facing companies who require loans and other capital funding and cash flow solutions to survive and grow their business






Business financing
needs in Canada might be requiring you to ' test the water ‘. But the question that begs to be asked is what amount of capital do you require for your company and, equally important, what is the desired or best funding solution. Let's dig in.

Full scale business might well be required for larger financing - we're typically talking 1 Million ++ $, and that includes solid executive summaries, cash flow forecasts, etc. But in the ' SME “market (small to medium enterprise) (where a lot of action takes place!) that's definitely not necessarily the case.

We'll point our though that any business owner/financial mgr who can't provide basic info such as financial statements, owner info, background story, etc is somewhat doomed to failure in achieving their company financing goals. In some cases a third party business financing advisor/consultant might be the best person to move your financing needs forward.

Keep in mind also that whether it’s a small or large amount of due diligence you will always be required to submit a proper application and relevant back up info - Example - aged receivables, payables, articles of incorp., , tax obligations, etc

Naturally new capital can come in the form of new owner equity (not what we are talking about here today) or debt and asset monetization solutions. ( That's what we're talking about today )

What then are the basic financial solutions available in SME COMMERCIAL FINANCE ? They typically include the following:

A/R Financing - (includes factoring, Confidential Receivable Financing)

Inventory Finance

Bank credit lines / term loans

Non bank full business credit lines – ‘ ABL’ loans

Equipment Finance/sale leasebacks

Govt of Canada Guaranteed Small Business Loan Program (this just in! New limit is $1,000,000.00)

SR&ED Loans- Refundable tax credit financing

Royalty Finance

Franchise Loans

Unsecured cash flow loans


Our experience tells us that timelines often drive the financing need, with, unfortunately many clients demonstrating reactive as opposed to proactive financing searches. Some transactions definitely require more time than others to successfully be completed, and unfortunately some firms don't have the financial resources to control their destinies! Aka ' running out of cash!
