Helping Canadian businesses beat the odds!
CFO services says that a lot of people are unaware of the CS BFP that can be accessed through the Canadian government, and through the Canadian banks. What the CS BFP stands for is the Canada small business financing program. It is a loan under that program that small businesses can qualify for. It defines a small business as companies that have less than $10 million in revenue coming in from their business.
CFO services says that the threshold doesn’t know about it is available yet or not. There are a lot of benefits to this program, however there are some legitimate downfalls as well. The main benefits for banks is the federal government are basically and legitimately guaranteeing the loan. The bank will know that they never really are going to default so that’s really convenient for them, and fantastic if you are indeed a bank.
Likewise, it is a very risky your project, and if it is, it might not be a very good idea for you to access the CS BFP if you don’t legitimately have as much history in the business, or if it is in fact a risk your project you might not necessarily qualify for CS BFP. It might be an easier thing to look into, then a conventional commercial loan. These are wonderful as they are individually and decisively backed by the federal government.
CFO services says that nobody wants to do a lot of paperwork, particularly in a small businesses where you are trying to get as many people through your doors as you possibly can. Likewise, the banks feel exactly the same way. They are going to have to coordinate with the federal government, and the bank can’t set their own policy. They are going to have to get very detailed in a lot of things that they are going to have to do in terms of the CS BFP. Make sure they can for coordinate with the federal government to make sure they are going to agree to and back the loan in the event of a default. You’re going to take back in the banks a little more time to qualify and process.
On one hand, this is a great idea as they get to guarantee from the feds.
, However on the other hand, what is a very big disadvantage is the fact that they’re going to have to spend a lot more time and money getting the loan approved by that federal government. The small granite unions and the smaller banks from within the country, in Spiro L and Associates charter professional accountants opinion, says that they are more likely to lend into the program. Especially in Alberta, they can go to the ATB, the service credit union, or even some of the smaller banks where they will be better able to get approved. Every once in a while a big bank will in fact lend however however it is not uncommon for them to lend 50% of the asset value.
There are a lot of hard assets that you can buy when you get approved for the Canada small business financing program. They are generally hard assets like equipment, real estate, and leasehold improvements pill. You cannot build your website, or finance your payroll costs on this particular loan. Advertising as well’s is excluded from this CS BFP. The US version gives them the freedom for a little more. However, Canada seems to be doing all right, and their banking system is not in decay. If you need a truck for your business, saw, you’re going to need out build out your leasehold improvements for your new location, soft assets, operating capital is necessarily not part of the qualification process.
CFO services says if you look at the maximum for how much can be lent under the CS BFP, the maximum for any combination of equipment, hard assets, such as leaseholds, are captive three and $50. On the other hand, for real estate it is a separate. The Is $1 million. However, $1 million is the total loan. So if you want the loan for $1 million in real estate that is just fine. However you can’t have $1 million in hard assets. As well, if you have $350, the maximum in hard assets. You can only take out $650,000 in real estate. Again, $1 million is the hard On the CS BFP.
Interest is unlike conventional loans, state CFO services. This is where it gets marginally confusing. The CS BFP is a set rate that they can’t choose what to charge you. Prime +3%, which usually equates to about 6.5% is usually the middle-of-the-road interest rate. That will float with prime. What that means is if prime goes up, the loan will go up. If prime goes down, then obviously the loan will go down the financing fee also is a one time fee at 2%. That’s only in year one. And only one time. It helps to mitigate some of the processing fees.
Banks can legitimately still request security audit. For example, five years ago the banks could not ask any more than that security. Now however, the procedures and protocols have changed, and the banks can ask for a personal guarantee on that entire amount.
The knowledgeable entrepreneur is going to not necessarily take their chances on this they are going to be much educated. The reason for this is because they are on the hook for 100% of it if it defaults.
CFO services says that the entrepreneur is only going to do this on something that they think is going to pay back, such as their business. No longer and no risk or a limited risk product is the Canada small business financing loan you could be on the hook eventually for the entire loan.
Because you’re taking on the risk, you are going to need a business plan to make sure you’re going to pay it back. It is the best decision that you turn to our team for help.
