What are Low Doc Business Loans?

Low doc business loans are popular among SMEs in Australia and similar to conventional secured and unsecured business loans. The main difference is that low doc business loans enable self-employed borrowers and small businesses to secure instant cash flow or business capital without the requirement to furnish supporting financial documentation typically needed for loan approval.

Traditional financial institutions like banks require financial statements, proof of income, tax returns, etc., for background checks. They need the documents to assess the viability of the business for loan approval. Lack of documentation often becomes an issue with small business owners, causing a strike for business loan approval.

Business owners are often confronted with financial emergencies, which demand instant access to cash. That might be a problem with loans that require full documentation. Why? That’s because it takes time to go through all those documents and process the loan, unlike low doc business loans that ensure fast approval in a matter of 24-48 hours.

Low doc business loans extend financial relief to new businesses, start-ups, and small businesses, helping them secure quick financing, minus the stringent trail of documents and long approval periods typical with banks. These loans can also help SMEs bolster their capital for business expansion, marketing investment, etc., or replenish the cash reserves in times of deficit.

Owning and running a small business in Australia can be challenging for an entrepreneur. Low doc secured and unsecured business loans offer fast and easy access to funds, accelerating growth and business development.

Case Studies

Compared to the conventional secured and unsecured business loans with full documentation, a low doc business loan is often considered risky in the world of financing. But there is no denying, if you are a new enterprise with minimal business documentation, in need of fast cash, then low doc is the best cash-flow option. Over the years, we at Broc Finance have helped many businesses, especially in the SME domain across Australia by facilitating low doc business loans.

The following business case scenarios will help you understand better:

case-study1 case-study2

Case study 1

Grocery Retail Store

Business Overview

Industry

Retail

Trading time

3 years

Cash flow

Daily Eftpos

Credit history

Good

In this case, the business is a retail grocery shop where in it generates daily EFTPOS income. There would be hardly any debtors in the business. The trading time is 3 years and there is no past credit irregularity.

Lender analysis

Low risk

Consider higher loan

Good interest rate

Thus, this business presents lower risk to the lenders considering daily income credit, established business with good credit history and hence, the lenders would consider a higher unsecured business loan exposure with a competitive rate of interest on this business.

Case study 2

Property Development

Business Overview

Industry

Construction Trading

Trading time

5 years

Cash flow

Invoicing

Credit history

Past Settled Default

In the above case, the business is into construction. The business would have limited 3-5 invoices per month and gets paid through invoices raised which generally takes 30-60 days. There is also a settled default in past.

Lender analysis

High risk

Conservative loan

Higher interest rate

So, despite trading for 5 years, the above business presents a higher risk considering infrequent revenue, long credit days, past credit default and greater industry risk considering frequent delays in work completion. Hence, the lenders would be conservative in lending and generally would charge a higher rate of interest.
