How to Prepare a Lender-Ready Business Loan Package
A complete, organized package helps an advisor and potential lender understand the request faster.
Start with a clear financing summary
State the amount, purpose, desired timing, repayment source and the specific outcome the capital should support.
Prepare current financial information
Common requests include recent business tax returns, year-to-date profit and loss, balance sheet, bank statements, accounts-receivable aging and a business debt schedule.
Explain the story behind the numbers
Describe unusual changes, one-time expenses, seasonality, customer concentrations and how the proposed financing affects future cash flow.
Review before submission
Make sure entity names, ownership, dates and financial totals are consistent. Missing or conflicting information can delay review.
A PFCS Business Finance Advisor can review your objectives and possible financing paths.
