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.

Tax Credit Financing In Canada: Refundable Tax Credit SR&ED Loans & SRED Funding Delivers On The Cash Promise














Can SR&ED Tax Credit Financing Make Your R&D Journey Happier ?

We Think So And Here's Why

Information on tax credit financing in Canada. SR&ED loans can play a valuable part in refundable tax credit finance . Here's information on why businesses committed to R&D Capital Investment should consider SRED Funding





Not everyone Canadian business owner or financial manager takes advantage of the Canadian Governments SR & ED (Scientific Research & Experimental Development) tax credit program. It's clearly in our opinion of the best and truly legitimate and valuable programs that a government provides for its business entrepreneurs in Canada.

Many, when they hear of the program for the first, are amazed that they can receive significant funds, that are non - repayable (yes that's non -repayable!) for their ongoing investment in research, product development, business processes, etc.

And, those that do take advantage of the program dutifully wait many months, in some cases a year or so or more for their cheques from the provincial and federal government.

Why not borrow against these funds and utilize those funds for much needed working capital and cash flow to further fuel the growth of your firm.

SR & ED financing is still relatively unknown in Canada - it is clearly a very specialized type of financing, somewhat 'boutique' let us say, in nature.

The government, via the program, wants to provide funds to Canadian business so they can continue to further their research and development and provide Canadian firms with a lead in technology and business.

So lets get back to the financing of the SR ED, aka ' SHRED ', aka 'SR &ED'. SR ED Loans are typically for approximately 70% of your combined federal and provincial claim. The claim can be financed as soon as you have formally filed the claim with the government, which is at the same time you do your year end tax filing.

SR ED applications can be filed for the last two years, so on occasion your firm might in fact have a significant receivable generated by virtue of that filing you have done. Our observation is that some companies actually book that receivable in their financial statements for the full amount of the claim. Some companies take the conservative approach and only record the cash coming in when it is received from the government.

So, you as a business owner or financial manager of a Canadian company are asking yourself the obviously - if I book the SR ED as an account receivable, will my bank provide financing for it. Our experience is generally 'no 'they will not. Canadian chartered banks, being somewhat more conservative in nature, recognize the SR ED claim may or may not be approved. So if there is any risk in your financial structure as viewed by the bank they will not advance funds.

The private sector of Canadian finance is in fact doing the SR ED financing. Claims are financed on the basis of your firms overall financial status, although we add that even pre revenue companies or companies that are losing money can still obtain SR ED financing.

Every Canadian firm that files a SR ED claim should consider financing the claim if they feel the additional cash flow and working capital will assist their company in continued growth and success. Talk to an expert and use this alternative financing as a great way to boost cash flow.
