A common question

What do banks look for in an SME loan?

Repayment capacity from cash flows, the quality and consistency of financial statements, the working capital cycle, security and the promoters' track record.

Clean, consistent numbers and realistic projections shorten the process and improve the terms you are offered.

Questions we get asked

Bank Funding Support: Questions, Answered

What is CMA data?

Credit Monitoring Arrangement data: a set of financial statements, projections and ratios in the format banks use to assess working capital limits.

Do you arrange the loan?

We prepare the proposal and support you with the bank. The lending decision and terms are the bank's.

What are drawing-power statements?

Monthly statements of stock and receivables that set how much of a working capital limit you can use.

Can you help with a loan renewal?

Yes. Renewals need updated CMA data, statements and compliance with past covenants, which we prepare.
