Business Loan Rates

Unlike personal loans where we establish rates by formula, the rates we offer on business loans are all individually negotiated. They vary depending on various factors primarily including:

• General interest rates prevailing
• Our experience with, knowledge of and/or reputation of the customer
• Financial strength of the customer and/or guarantors
• Value and marketability of the collateral offered
• Amount of loan(s) requested and terms desired
• Balances carried in checking accounts
• Perceived socio-economic benefits of the loan to the community 

Rates are traditionally indexed to the prime rate.
