What is an SBA loan and what businesses are eligible for one? What can an SBA loan be used for? What are the requirements for receiving an SBA loan? Do you need a good personal credit history to get an SBA loan? And where can a small business owner apply for an SBA loan?

#sba #sbaloans #startups

In this episode of Financial Cents, John Lewis, senior vice president and regional commercial manager at National Bank of Arizona, joins host Brent Cannon, executive vice president and director of community banking at National Bank of Arizona, to discuss 5 things most people probably don’t know about SBA loans.

“The Small Business Administration, or SBA, partners with financial institutions like National Bank of Arizona to be able to provide loans to small businesses. For the bank, these loans are guaranteed by the federal government up 85%,” says John. “This guarantee then allows banks to be able to provide more flexible terms for small business owners than they may ordinarily be able to get.”

“SBA loans can be used for a wide variety of things,” says John, “from short-term working capital to long-term working capital, in addition to acquiring assets like equipment or commercial real estate.”

What bank accounts and services does a small business need? What financial tools are available for small business owners who are just starting out? How can a relationship with a local business banker help you be proactive in operating your business?

Starting off Season 3 of Financial Cents, Chris Sarver, vice president and business banking team lead at National Bank of Arizona, joins host Brent Cannon, executive vice president and director of community banking at National Bank of Arizona, to discuss the 5 most important accounts and services a small business owner needs for their business.

Though a business checking account may be the starting point for any business owner, a business credit card can help manage the cash flow cycle, treasury management can help the business pay vendors and get paid by clients quickly and efficiently, and lending can help the business expand. But perhaps the most important service a business owner can have is a relationship with their local business banker.

What is a 501(c)(3) organization and how can a nonprofit obtain that status? What bank accounts and financial tools and accounts do nonprofits need? And why do nonprofits need a board of directors and what goes into serving on one? With nonprofits playing such a vital role in our community and economy,

In this episode of Financial Cents, Melissa Steimer, CEO of the nonprofit Gabriel’s Angels, joins Pamela Keefe, vice president, nonprofit relationship manager, and Brent Cannon, executive vice president, director of community banking at National Bank of Arizona, to discuss the challenges facing nonprofits today and how the right financial tools and solutions can help nonprofits overcome those challenges.

As Melissa discusses, nonprofits must follow certain regulations – not just to maintain their 501(c)(3) tax exempt status, but to ensure they are providing for their communities – which can make day-to-day business operations tricky. “At the end of the day, a nonprofit does make a profit,” says Melissa. “The biggest difference here is that the profit is not going to shareholders or an owner or other individuals, it’s going back into carrying out the nonprofit’s mission. That’s where the community good comes from.”

And given that the funds a nonprofit generates comes from donations, grants, and other sources that can be seasonal or short-term, it’s all that much more important to have the right tools and board leadership in place. “It’s not just about having a bank account created for nonprofits, it’s also about having fraud prevention tools in place, like Check Positive Pay¹. Having other tools to create efficiencies, like ACH for payroll and vendor payments, and a credit card.”

Financial Cents is hosted by Brent Cannon and features insightful interviews and discussions with bankers at National Bank of Arizona. Based on decades of banking experience, Financial Cents provides the insights you can only get from a friend in the business.
