Faster and Easier Commercial Loan Approvals
Tom Gibbons
Create a reporting system that goes beyond legally required information producing faster and easier commercial loan approvals.
Speaker, Workshop Leader, Author
Why is obtaining commercial loans approvals for both lenders and borrowers so difficult?
-
Don't scramble for vital information just prior to a loan approval.
-
Implement a standardized system of reporting with innovative schedules and tables that periodically capture vital financial, operational, and market information.
-
Reduce one-off conversations just prior to approvals that can create friction between the lender and borrower.
-
Avoid turnover issues by either the lender or borrower with this easy to implement reporting system.
-
Create in-depth information on a regular periodic basis so that loans can be approved more quickly and easily without a last-minute herculean effort.
-
Strenghten your relationship with your lender/borrower/business owner/advisor/board members by producing and receiving appropriate information to assist in decision making.
