How to get the approval of loan much easier? Here are 3 points to be noted from Kaizen:
- The incorporation of company or firm is required
For the review of young entrepreneurship loans, the bank usually evaluates the actual operation of the entrepreneur’s new business, so it is best to use a company that has already been incorporated and is operating normally. If there is a tax form, it can increase the willingness of the bank to undertake the loan . On the contrary, if the applicant has just established a company and wants to use the business loan as the capital to start the business, the bank will comprehensively and prudently evaluate the suitability according to the specific business plan, fund use, repayment ability and other conditions .
- The purpose of loan shall be specific
Entrepreneurs are advised to regard the young entrepreneurship loan as the main purpose of business operation. For example, it is better to use it as working capital, reserve fund, purchase of expansion equipment, etc. It is better to avoid applying for it when there is a shortage of basic funds. It will allow the lending bank to include a higher risk factor in its assessment, which will affect the chances of getting a loan smoothly.
- The influence on capital
If the original registered capital is only TWD100,000, some people want to apply for an amount exceeding TWD1,000,000. Such a large gap in the ratio may cause the final approved loan amount to be lower than expected. If the applicant wants to borrow more funds, in addition to detailing the planned profit model of the business in the business plan, the application management and repayment plan of the future loan funds should also be proposed more completely.
After all, the business loan needs to be repaid after approval, so for financial institutions, it will still be evaluated comprehensively. Entrepreneurs who want to successfully apply for a loan must put forward a more specific business operation plan, loan fund use and repayment plan, in order to increase the bank’s willingness to approve the loan, and the applicant can successfully obtain funds for business operation.
