The B&I Guaranteed Loan Program aims to enhance, expand, or fund business, industry, and employment, as well as to enhance the economic and environmental conditions in rural communities. This objective is accomplished by strengthening the current private credit system through guaranteeing high-quality loans that will bring long-term advantages to the community. The guarantee authority is not meant to be utilized for low-quality or inadequate loans, or to assist lenders dealing with such loans.
Our business loans and lines of credit help businesses like yours meet their financial goals within their specific budget and timelines. Meet your company’s short-term or long-term business goals with one of our business loans.
