CIBC Business Lending: Financing That Adapts to Your Needs
Whether you need working capital, equipment financing, or expansion funding, CIBC structures lending solutions around your business cycle and cash flow pattern.
Lending Products Overview
Business Term Loans
Fixed-rate and variable-rate term loans from $5,000 to $5 million for capital expenditures, expansion, inventory, and operational needs. Predictable repayment schedules with terms from 1 to 10 years help you plan cash flow with certainty.
Loan DetailsRevolving Credit Facilities
Flexible credit lines that provide instant access to funds when you need them. Draw down and repay as your cash flow dictates. Interest accrues only on the amount drawn, making credit facilities efficient for managing seasonal fluctuations.
Credit DetailsOverdraft Coverage
Automated protection that covers shortfalls when your account balance dips below zero. Rather than declining payments or incurring NSF fees, overdraft coverage bridges the gap and charges interest only on the overdrawn amount for the days used.
Coverage DetailsGovernment-Backed Financing
Access the Canada Small Business Financing Program (CSBFP) through CIBC for loans up to $1,150,000. Government guarantees reduce risk and enable more favorable terms for eligible businesses, particularly startups and expanding SMBs.
