Bank And Non-Bank Financing
What is The Difference Between a Bank Loan and Non-Bank Finance?
The difference between bank financing and non-bank financing is simply the qualifying process - lending criteria and the long uphill struggle of dealing with red tape and a mountain of paperwork requirements.
FDIC Banks' focus is on borrowers with high earnings, excellent credit history, strong balance sheet and a predetermined debt service ratios.
Non-bank asset based lenders do not have the restrictions imposed to banks by regulators and therefore allowing for flexibility throughout the qualifying process. A process that can help companies when they are unable to qualify under the requirements of a traditional bank line, or borrowers that have been turned-down because of stringent bank lending criteria, including certain borrowers with high leverage, negative net worth, recent losses and those faced with fast growth/expansion needs.
A non-bank lender looks at the overall merits of the company, including the company's business model, receivables diversification, management capabilities and abilities to generate eligible sales.
