Our working capital solutions are designed for two main types of clients:
- growing companies that need additional capital to fuel their growth and take advantage of additional business opportunities, or
- companies that require re-financing or re-structuring of their existing financial structure
Most conventional lenders provide financing only to those companies whose financial ratios fit within certain conservative, narrowly defined parameters. GreenFlow has developed a different approach to help you with your working capital needs.
