As a business person, there are a number of choices that one has to get loans for the business. There are some basic traits (characteristics/features) of a loan that we need to look at before deciding whether the loan is the right one for the business.

So, which loan is better for a business person??

Loans With Low Interest Rate

idea posted by Rashmi Patil Financial services

This is a feature that anyone will look for in any loan. But every loan product will have its own characteristic hence we need to discuss this feature in detail.

The easiest loan that any businessman can get is the daily/weekly payment loans from local financiers. But the interest rate here can be very high, in the order of 3% and above per month.

Add your argument:

Cash Credit, Term Loan and Non-fund based limits

idea posted by kanukurthy sudershanrao Operations Manager, Andhra Bank

A business man may require the following type of loans

1Cash Credit facility to meet his short term needs and also to pool his cash inflows in the lean season, Banks are fixing lean season and Season limits.

2. Term Loans for funding his long term requirements like getting new machinery, new structure in view of increase in business etc.

3. Non fund based limits like Bank Guarantees, Pre-shipment and post-shipment credit for export needs, Letters of Credit, and finally Deferred Payment Guarantee.

4. Bill Limits is another option. They are of two types Clean Bills and Documentary Bills.

All these can be explored for various needs of business.

Active Loan management

idea posted by kailash bajaj Analyst, D E shaw

A general interest rate cycle lasts for 4-5 years, so big business houses should those subscribe to floating or fixed rate loans depending on the view their company has (treasury guys come in picture here).

For SME's I feel loan from individual lender is a better option because a normal interest rate that is currently charged is around 15% p.a. and 3-4% extra for ocnstruction, stock broking (riskier) firms. But out here they are atleast free from all documentation process. Secondly, on personal contacts you can delay the interest payment (if there is solid crunch)

Easy processing

idea posted by Ekta Dutta Hedge Fund Analyst/Trader, ING Vysya Bank

Mostly business people like to have loans that have simple & fast processing. Money is important for any business & delay in processing is appreciated. Thus a loan that has faster processing & low processing fess is welcomed by business people.
