company INTRODUCTION
BDC Community Capital offers an extensive range of products designed to meet the real financing needs of minority-owned businesses and companies that strengthen LMI communities. We provide senior debt, subordinated debt, mezzanine, and equity options that can be customized to your needs. We work with any lender to find the right mix of conventional bank financing and a CDFI loan or investment. Our financing typically offers higher advance rates and longer terms than a regulated bank is allowed to offer, and we can work with businesses that have a collateral shortfall, uneven earnings, or high leverage due to growth.
