Why Your Business Financing is Missing the Mark (And How You Can Fix It)
More Cash Flow With Asset Based Lending
How to get financing for a business ? That's a question that comes up all the time with our clients, and they want solutions now, not down the road! One ' size fits all' solution is asset based lending . These 'ABL' techniques and solutions could provide all the financing your firm needs in today's compeitive environment.
Business owners and financial mgr's are looking for finance that grows with their business. As it became difficult to get all the financing they needed after 2008's recession many business owners investigated the ABL solution.
Typically, ( but not always ) asset based finance is non bank in nature - it's offered by specialized commercial finance co's. It helps businesses access more working capital and cash flow - typically "Job 1 " for any business.
If your company has long term debt , and is looking to avoid taking on more debt, payables are rising, and you're waiting long to collect receivables asset finance is a very logical solutions. Ironically many business owners and financial managers in some cases haven't heard of this type of
business financing .
In the ' old days ' ( we remember them well ) abl was often touted as a financing of last resort. No longer!! Using it can grow your business, expand into new markets, buy a competitor, and oh yes, just survive day to day!
In it's purest sense asset based lending is often just a revolving line of credit that allows you to borrow against all, repeat ' all ' of your assets. Those typical asset categories include receivables, inventory and fixed assets.. even real estate if your company occupies and owns it's own premises.
THE ABL DIFFERENCE ?
Simple - You can borrow significantly, on an ongoing basis, against those assets . Smaller ABL facilities tend to be in the 250k range, but they can easily run into the millions. Many large corporations use ABL also by the way!
By now you may have picked up on the fact that as your business grows you can borrow more on an ongoing basis, as your assets have grown also - with virtually no upper limit.
While Canadian chartered banks focus on ratios, covenants, personal guarantees and high net worth the asset finance solution focuses.. you guessed it.. mostly on your business assets.
ABL comes in different flavors and can be specifically based or full service against all assets . That allows you to not postpone business success! Can you afford not to access this solution ?
