“Nothing replaces the need for relationships. Working with a community bank isn’t, ‘Here’s the money nowpay it back.’ We have a connection to the ultimate survival of the company, because it is a partnership,”Little said. “We’re bringing the community back to commercial 푋nance.”

Accounts receivable factoring works as a low-risk means for businesses to expand their working capitalwithout opening a line of credit. AR/ABL credit works much the same way, with the direct lender holdingthe company’s receivables as collateral.

The expanded services will operate under the subsidiary HB Funding Services LLC, serviced andmanaged by Diversi푋ed Funding Services. It will also provide a suite of back of푋ce management optionsfor small businesses. This includes receivables management, receivables collection and creditmonitoring for vendors.
