Lender introductions

The financing need defines the search.

A useful lender introduction begins with the business behind the requirement. Kalder connects companies with potentially suitable lenders for asset-based facilities, equipment finance and working capital.

Financing for
the work ahead.

The use of funds, the business profile and the lender’s criteria guide the introduction. We begin with what you need to finance and why.

01

Asset-Based Lending

Introductions for businesses exploring credit supported by eligible business assets.

02

Equipment Finance

Introductions for businesses investing in the equipment their operations require.

03

Working Capital

Introductions for businesses seeking credit to support operating requirements and cash-flow needs.

Other commercial credit requirements can be discussed at the outset.

to lender access.

Clarity on responsibilities.

Further detail

Before
we begin.

Is Kalder the lender?

Kalder facilitates lender introductions. Any financing is provided by the lender, which carries out its own assessment and sets its own terms.

Which requirements can we discuss?

Asset-based lending, equipment finance, working capital and other commercial credit needs. We begin by determining whether your requirement is within the scope of an introduction.

Does an introduction assure approval?

No. Eligibility, underwriting, facility structure, pricing and approval remain with the lender.

What should the initial inquiry include?

A short business overview, the financing purpose, approximate amount, location and timing. Financial documents and sensitive identifiers can be addressed through an appropriate channel after the initial conversation.
