The Banks Are Ready to Lend. Are You Bank Ready?

Smetric can help you get ‘bank ready’ with their Government funded COVID-19 Cashflow Management and Business Support service.

The NZ Government is now backing a $6.25 billion Business Finance Guarantee Scheme to help businesses hit by the coronavirus crisis. Businesses with turnover between $250,000 and $80 million can begin applying for up to three-year $500,000 loans.

Banks will take into account the way the covid-19 crisis is affecting your business, relative to your performance prior to the lockdown. The banks still need to understand if each business customer will be able to meet their commitments. Banks don’t want to place people under even more financial stress by lending to customers that don’t have a viable way forward.

To be ‘bank ready’ businesses will have to provide financial projections.  You will need to go with a plan on how you intend to last the crisis and get your business back on its feet afterwards.

Get in touch for a quick chat or to ask us guide you through this process.

About the Company

Smetric Insights provides business intelligence services for medium sized businesses in NZ. We help them get business clarity  from their data. The result is better information, better decisions and better conversations and more successful businesses. Business intelligence and data analytics are nothing new. But the tools have changed. Twenty years ago, Smetric Insight's founder, Warwick Russell, lived in Excel. It was, and still is a great tool - a huge advance on the slide rule and then calculators available during his schooling and early career. But those days of repetitive analysis each day/week/month have gone! Now we can automate it!
