Behind the Lending Curtain - Part 1

Event description

Ever wonder what really happens after you submit your business loan application? Pull back the curtain and step into the lender’s world in this insightful and eye-opening webinar.

In this first session of the "Behind the Lending Curtain" series, you'll gain clarity on how financial institutions evaluate your loan request, what documents are absolutely essential, and why getting to “yes” is more than just a credit score. Discover how banks assess risk, what the internal loan committee looks for, and why transparency is your best asset. You’ll leave this session understanding why you don’t always get an immediate answer—and how to position yourself for a favorable one.

What You Will Learn:

• What makes a strong loan application package and what documents are required
• How lenders use risk matrices and scorecards to evaluate your request
• The roles of the Loan Officer and Loan Committee in decision-making
• Why “Yes (for now)” or “No (for now)” is often the real answer—and what it means for you
• The impact of the SBA guarantee and the importance of financial transparency
