Both business and personal credit scores are key for loan consideration. The higher the blended scores, the greater the likelihood for approval.

It depends. For startup businesses, yes—the requirement for startups is a 10% equity injection. For existing businesses that have been in operation for more than 1 year, up to 100% financing may be available.

Once a full application is submitted, the targeted funding date can be 45 days or less.
