5 CS OF LENDING.
Commonly referred to as the five Cs, heres what your banker wants to know
about you and your business:
1. Character: Hopefully the banker sitting across the desk from you is just as
interested in your character as your credit score (many are not), the way they judge
your character probably has a lot to do with your score. In September I wrote about
Traci Flynn, a community banker, who considers character an important part of
how she evaluates potential borrowers. How she evaluates borrowers might be
insightful. Shes not looking for the perfect borrowershe knows there arent very
many of them. What she is looking for is a good management team, realizing that
even someone with a bruise or two who has done everything they can to stay current
with their obligations, could be a good customer. If they have a good management
team and they have some of these other factors in place, we can make a case to the

lending board that the business is a good candidate for a loan, she says. Of course
there is a credit threshold we wont go below, but we want to make sure were doing
the best we can for all the small businesses in our community. When she says
some of these other factors shes also talking about how you and your business
approach the other Cs.
2.Credit Score: Although this is listed as number two, it should probably be number
one. Its pretty much a go-no-go measure for most traditional lenders, and although
alternative lenders are willing to work with borrowers with credit scores as low as even
500 (on a case-by-case basis), they all have different credit score thresholds they wont
go below. Whenever I talk to lenders, they uniformly suggest that credit score is really a
measure of your willingness and commitment to meet your financial obligations. Its
pretty cut and dried at most banks, but many alternative lenders understand there are
myriad reasons why someones credit score might be low. And, depending on the reason,
may still be willing to work with you. Even though there are lenders that will work with
small business owners with less than perfect credit, your credit score is critically
important. For the smallest small businesses, your personal credit score is critically
important. When meeting with a lender, you should know your score and be prepared to
explain anything negative on your report. Give the lender a reason to look beyond the
score.
4. Capital: Growing up in a small business family and working with my father and my
mother in the family business, I can think of more than one time when my dad would
say something like, If I had that, I wouldnt need a loan from the bank. He was
complaining about the cash his banker expected him to have on hand before he would
offer him a loan. Its important to remember that bankers are highly risk averse and
want to make sure borrowers have a little bit of skin in the game. From their perspective,
the thought is a little skin in the game will make it harder to walk away. It makes sense
too, but we all know your blood, sweat, and tears are a pretty substantial investment too.

Having some cash on hand for day-to-day cash flow and maybe a little set aside for a
rainy day tells the lender the business loan youre
looking for isnt a last-ditch effort to keep your company alive for the next few months
while your business continues to falter.
5. Collateral: Banks and other traditional lenders consider assets like real estate or
capital equipment as collateral. Alternative lenders might consider your accounts
receivable or monthly credit card receipts as collateralwhether or not they identify it
that way. I remember the days when I could get a little extra capital on my signature;
those days are over for most small business owners.
