As the fallout of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, many future developments are fluid and hard to predict. One thing that all can agree on, is that the economic effects of the situation and its impact on businesses will be significant.
While some business owners will bury their heads in the sand and wait for the storm to pass, it will be the ones that proactively position their business for the inevitable upcoming market recovery, that will be successful. One of the most significant and important steps to take in this process is ensuring sufficient business liquidity and continued operations under the existing conditions. And while some of the funds required by businesses will be driven by a defensive strategy of survival and business preservation, many companies in certain sectors of the economy (cleaning, delivery, SaaS, telecom, security, etc.) will need financing for the expansion of their business.
Regardless of the particular impact that your business might experience due to the current situation (positive or negative), our lending and banking partners are open for business. The recent government announcement of the Business Credit Availability Program (BCAP) which will help Canadian businesses obtain financing during the current period of significant uncertainty is yet another step in ensuring liquidity among small businesses.
