Since inception, Business Finance & Development has worked with business owners, lending institutions and rural communities in the areas of capital acquisition and structure, strategic planning and mergers and acquisitions.

Our clients represent a variety of industries including Agriculture and Forestry, Communications, Construction, Distribution, Energy, Healthcare, Manufacturing, Mining, Retail Trade, Services, Technology, Transportation, Wholesale Trade and more.

We are a relationship-driven company focused on the results of our clients.  We strive to understand the industry and business issues our clients face, and the culture that exists within their organization.

Our goal is to function as an adjunct part of our client's management team and to provide value that leads to improved planning and profitability.

In today's competitive environment, lending institutions need a strategy that helps prevent their services from becoming a commodity. Guaranteed lendings programs can be a powerful means of doing so, and can also generate significant profit for the institution. Yet, the process can be time-consuming and complex.

We work with lenders as the equivalent of an "outsourced loan officer and analyst" and guide our lending clients through the entire process, including the sale of the guarantee in the secondary market.

Many community leaders, particularly those in rural America, face a shortage of resources to better serve their community. These shortages may be in the areas of people, facilities, capital, or any combination.

We work with rural community leaders to align their development strategy with their capital needs, and offer finance programs with very favorable terms to rural communities and businesses in those communities.
