Asset-Based Lines of Credit

Daily-Followed Revolving Financing for Mission-Driven
Turn your accounts receivable and inventory into working capital. From $500,000 to $5 million for minority-owned and LMI-impact companies that need more flexibility than a traditional bank line.
company INTRODUCTION
BDC Community Capital provides accounts receivable and inventory lines of credit to companies in manufacturing, wholesaling, distribution, and business services. Many business owners hit a wall with conventional lenders because of size or collateral restrictions, or because their financing need is simply outside the box of what a bank can underwrite. Alternative lenders often fill the gap at a cost that eats into profits. As a mission-driven CDFI, we offer a different combination: creative structures at a competitive cost that keep your profits in the business and your community.

Timing varies with deal complexity, but our team prioritizes responsiveness and works to your business timeline. Local decision-making keeps the process moving.
