FlexBiz Loan
Valuable for projects lacking sufficient collateral; often TEDC Creative Capital can reduce a private lender's exposure with subordinated financing.
TEDC uses Creative Capital to make loans of up to $75,000 to small businesses. Proceeds may be used for most business purposes. Rates and maturities vary based on project risk. Eligibility requirements vary, but job creation and retention are a major consideration. Funding for new FlexBiz loans is limited by TEDC's existing contracts with the City of Tulsa and other organizations committed to economic development financing for small businesses.
