Pick your industry and the matrix ranks the financing options that tend to fit it by how well they match, then shows the typical cost and funding timeline for each. You know where to start before you talk to a single lender.

Financing Solution Matrix
Which structures fit your industry?
Pick your industry to see the financing structures that tend to fit best — ranked, with how the market actually funds itself.
- ABL — Asset-Based Lending
- A revolving line secured by your assets (receivables, inventory, equipment). You draw as needed and pay interest only on what you use.
- Invoice Factoring vs. A/R Financing
- With factoring you sell your invoices and the lender collects from your customers. With A/R financing you borrow against the invoices and keep collecting yourself.
