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 Financing In Canada : Against All Odds You Can Improve Chances Of Business Finance Solution Success




Foraging For Business Financing In Canada ?





OVERVIEW – Information on business financing alternatives in Canada . The right finance solution for Canadian business must match sales, assets, and overall financial viability





Business financing
in Canada. It is easy sometimes for the business owner/financial manager to feel they are ' foraging ' for solutions. There's probably no problem with that, although we're highly recommending that you learn as you gather! Let's dig in.

Feeling tired on exploring those finance solutions? Are the odds stacked against you?














Given bank loans, government guaranteed loans, niche solutions offered by commercial finance companies, and all those equity solutions that dilute capital (angel/VC funding, crowdfunding, etc) what really is the right solution that is achievable for your business?

Those equity solutions (as opposed to debt and asset monetization) are really only suitable if your business can achieve hyper growth, market dominance, etc. Not for everyone.

Sometimes it's also difficult for the owner/manager to decline a finance solution when in fact it might be the wrong one - that’s painful business financing and we see a lot of that when we talk to certain clients.

More often than not it’s a ' cash flow ' solution that is required. Those outflows simply aren't matching the inflows! , and the degree of seriousness of that problem has taken many a business down.

The best cash flow and working capital solutions are those that fix temporary and intermediate problems. In many cases they are not the long term fix that that equity capital can provide - from owners or outsiders.

We're the first to advise clients that working capital problems can be overcome by a lot of internal work, not necessarily requiring external financing solutions - that comes via selling more, generating higher profits , and focusing on asset mgmt and debt reduction .

What are though those external financial solutions to business financing, cash flow and working capital? They include:

Bank credit lines

Asset based lines of credit - full facilities or invoice or inventory finance separately or together

Tax credit monetization

Equipment financing/sale leasebacks

Tax Credit Finance bridge loans


The right financing solution can be identified, allowing a turnaround of sorts to commence.

There is a huge difference in the cost and access to financing that larger profitable companies have versus those struggling in the mid market SME Commercial sector in Canada. The reality is that smaller firms are ' credit scored ' in a fairly formulaic way - larger businesses get a bit more attention.

It' critical to understand why your firm can't get the financing you think it needs, but as important to know what the alternatives are. Seek out and speak to a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business Financing Advisor with a track record of success
who can reverse that ' foraging ' feeling.
