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.

SME Finance Commercial Financing Options In Canada : Reshaping Business Loans And Finance Solutions












Looking For Extra Strength Canadian Business Financing in The SME COMMERCIAL FINANCE sector ?


OVERVIEW – Information on SME FINANCE solutions and commercial financing options in the small to medium enterprise sectors of Canadian business. What loans and asset monetization strategies make sense




Commercial financing options in the SME Finance
area are constant challenges to business owners and financial managers. The ' SMALL TO MEDIUM ENTERPRISE area of the Canadian business is often touted as driving the economy - why then are loans and asset financing strategies often hard to come by - or are they ? Let's dig in.

Business owners and financial managers need to adapt to the changing face of business finance in Canada. Success in business comes from many aspects of management. and financing is certainly one of them.

You only need to talk to any one in this sector to realize they often feel they are highly UN - supported by Canadian banks. That's somewhat ironic of course given the stellar international reputation of our banking system. In fact top experts tell us that the ‘mortality rate ' in the SME sector is often higher and places all the challenges of business on a single owner or partnership.



So are those financing options in fact ' limited ‘. Not necessarily. One or any number of the following options can help propel a business to growth or profits. They include - but are not limited to:

A/R Financing / Confidential Receivable Financing

Government Small business loans - Guaranteed by Ottawa

Working Capital Term Loans

Equipment Financing

Sale Leaseback strategies

Franchise financing

Non bank asset based lending

Unsecured bank loans

Mezzanine financing

Royalty /Revenue strategies

Asset based non bank lines of business credit

Inventory Financing

PO / Contract Finance

Tax Credit Financing - (SR&ED / MEDIA tax credits)


SME owners don't always necessarily have the same goals as larger corporations - many are owner income driven, and issues such as productivity or asset growth aren't necessarily top of mind.

SME's typically have a ' life cycle ' associated with them - i.e. product /service development, early growth , hyper growth, mature, etc. Understanding where your company or business is in that cycle allows the business owner, when he or she has the right expertise, to match financing to challenges.

Choosing the right type of financing is often part of the ' risk ' decision. The amount of personal control via taking on debt, personal guarantees, or having to provide outside collateral are all key factors that need to be tabled and discussed. While a large corporation might consider growth with significant risk the an SME owner may simply not want to take on that additional worry

If you're looking to ' reshape ' your firms financing and need that extra ' bench strength'
seek out and speak to a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business financing advisor who can assist you in matching financing , risk , and success to your business goals.
