Our approach was strategically developed to transform the current time-consuming process into a streamlined workflow that is fast, flexible and accurate.

The micro-middle market is underserved in the commercial finance industry when it comes to working capital financing. At LQD Business Finance, our lending approach considers where you’re going as much as where you’ve been. Our analysts and custom-built technologies review your business inside and out to generate financing solutions that surpass the caliber of other marketplace loans and lenders beyond comparison.

Greater Sophistication. Higher Flexibility.

Unlike specialized lenders who operate in silos, LQD Business Finance underwrites a variety of short term business loans in a wide range of industries. Our solutions are flexible and comprehensive to meet the full range of your unique business needs. In addition, we’ve automated parts of the underwriting process and eliminated some of the time consuming, administrative work to speed up the process.
