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.

Confidential Receivable Financing : Consider Trusting A/R Factoring After This














Worlds Almost Oldest Profession Explained – Spoiler Alert – It’s Not What You Think


OVERVIEW – Information on the benefits of confidential receivable financing in Canada. AR Factoring is one of the oldest and proven solutions for business capital in Canada . Here’s why A/R Finance works!








AR Factoring might well rank as one of the oldest professions in Canada. (Probably not the oldest profession you thought we were going to talk about!) How though do such solutions as confidential receivable financing remain such tried and true working capital and cash flow solutions? Let's dig in.

The world of business financing must surely seem more complex than ever in today’s hi-tech world, a world of VC capital, private equity, etc. But even though business owners and financial mgrs can utilize technology to identify capital solutions the rubber hits the road when real capital can be accessed through solutions such as factoring. The ability to generate cash at the same time you make a sale is most welcome to most owners/mgr's and entrepreneurs!

We're told that a/r financing, i.e. ' factoring' goes as far back as 1000 years B.C., but our experience is that owners/mgrs still want the same thing as those early A/R financing practitioners - the ability to sell products and services and obtain cash to keep their business operating cycle rolling. It's that liquidity that keeps business rolling.

Most business owners and their financial managers are often reluctant to take on business debt, and solutions such as confidential A/R finance solve that problem nicely.

The thousands of companies that utilize A/R finance today more often than not ' get it ‘. For other clients that we meet and talk to a certain amount of education is required around costs, benefits, and the many tech solutions that are now delivered through the A/R financing process.
The key benefit around ' Confidential non notification ' AR financing is your firms ability to bill and collect its own receivables while at the same time receiving as much cash as you need or want . You're minding your own business.

Cash flow and working capital financing is all about ' current asset financing ‘, namely the finance of your inventories and receivables. Factoring / AR finance are actually ' subsets' of asset based lending, which can also include turning your fixed assets into a part of your business credit line.

What drives owners/mgrs to consider financing receivables and other current assets? It simply the realization that profits and sales almost never equal ' Cash '! , and the inability of your company to bridge that gap will often determine the true success of your firm and its business financing needs.

Working capital and cash flow solutions include:

Confidential Receivable Finance

Inventory financing

SR&ED Tax credit finance bridge

Asset based non bank lines of credit (combining A/R, inventory and fixed assets into one borrowing facility)

Unsecured cash flow loans
