Toolbox for lenders

The amendments to the Canada Small Business Financing Regulations and Canada Small Business Financing Act came into force on July 4, 2022. They provide lenders and small businesses with additional financing products, new class of loans, increased loan amounts and terms, improved loan conditions and decreased administrative burden.

Financial institutions are currently in the process of rolling out these changes to start offering all of the enhanced features shortly.
