Why Credit Scores Matter for Business Loans
Lenders use credit scores (both personal and business, where applicable) as a key indicator of creditworthiness and risk. A higher credit score generally demonstrates responsible financial behavior and a lower risk of defaulting on a loan. This often translates to:
- Lower Interest Rates: Reduced borrowing costs over the life of the loan.
- Better Loan Terms: More favorable repayment periods or other conditions.
- Higher Approval Chances: Increased likelihood of getting approved for the loan.
- Access to More Funding: Potentially larger loan amounts.
Improving your credit score can significantly impact your ability to secure affordable financing for your business.
