Access to Capital for Small Business

We Assist Small Businesses with Exploring Access to Capital Options & Understanding Capital Needs

Why Capital Access Matters

Small businesses are the backbone of the economy, representing 99.9% of all U.S. businesses. However, access to capital remains one of the most significant barriers to small business success and growth.

Key Statistics:

* 82% of small businesses fail due to cash flow problems
* Only 20% of small business loan applications are approved by traditional banks
* Small businesses need capital for startup costs, inventory, equipment, expansion, and operational expenses
