Step 1:
Book an initial meeting

When applying for a business loan, it is important to work with a lender that understands your needs and your business.


The first step of this process is a meeting with a Cambrian Business Advisor to review your request. At this meeting, we will discuss your project plan, budget, financing needs, information needed to proceed and security requirements.


Our advisors are available to meet you however is most convenient for you – by phone or video or if you prefer, in-person at your place of business or at our office.

Step 2:
Finalize requirements

Following our initial meeting, the Business Advisor will confirm the business documentation and financial information that you will need to provide us.


Examples are personal net worth information, tax returns, mortgage statements, leases, articles of incorporation, etc.

Step 3:
Due diligence and approval

Once we have received all the required documentation and reports from your business and third parties, the Business Advisor will analyze, verify and validate the information before proceeding with the business loan application.


Once the loan is approved, Cambrian will send a Commitment Letter for your review and signature, which will outline your approved credit and the terms and conditions of your loan.

Step 4:
Funding of the loan

Upon meeting all conditions, the loan will be funded as per the requirements of the approval.

Frequently
Asked Questions

Do you offer Business Loans in USD?

Yes! We offer Business Loans in both Canadian and US Dollars.

What are your business lending term lengths?

Your lending term will depend on the security for the loan and your goals, and we match the loan length to the asset life.

Do I qualify for a Business Loan or Line of Credit?

Cambrian will look at a number of factors when reviewing your application, including credit and payment history and business collateral.

By reviewing your credit history, we are looking to ensure you have the cash flow to afford the payments on your loan. At the same time, we’ll look at how much capital you have invested in your business.

Your business collateral, includes, but is not limited to:

  • Security
  • Real estate
  • Cash/cash surrender value of insurance
  • Equipment
  • Accounts receivables and inventory



Should I get a Business Loan or a Line of Credit?

It depends on your business needs. Business Loans are a good option for large one-time expenses, such as equipment purchases or renovations. A line of credit allows you to create your own loan, and is frequently used to manage your cash flow and pay for day-to-day expenses.
