Why Partner with BrightBridge?
How We May Help
SBA 504 Loans
As a Certified Development Company (CDC) authorized by the SBA to provide its 504 Loan, we can provide long-term, fixed-rate subordinate debt for fixed asset financing. Benefits include longer-than-market amortization, a lower overall blended interest rate, fixed rates, and lower equity injection.
CDFI Loans
As a CDFI Loan Fund, we offer affordable and innovative debt options to for-profit and nonprofit businesses, to be used for affordable and workforce housing, and early-stage business finance and growth. You retain the deposits and treasury services; we provide interim debt until you want to put it on your balance sheet. Because we are a Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI), lending to or investing in BrightBridge may qualify your institution for CRA assistance, federal or state tax credits, and participation in supporting underserved communities. We re-lend the funds you provide to us to support your institution and the communities we all serve.
New Markets Tax Credit
As a New Markets Tax Credit practitioner and through our Community Development Entity (CDE) subsidiaries since 2003, we provide your bank with the opportunity to participate in both federal and state programs that support high-impact projects in the economically distressed communities we serve. These are sophisticated financing tools capable of delivering significant benefits to underserved communities and offering financial and CRA advantages to your bank. We work to help you understand this tool.
