Overview
A businesses’ need for money is usually satisfied by funds drawn from income. Occasionally, however, additional funds are required for expansion of the business, major capital acquisitions, or for some other purpose that the owners feel will add value to the organization. Funding sources can be both internal (loans from shareholders or capital introduced) and external (banks and other financiers). Once the need for additional funding has been confirmed, all avenues of obtaining the desired funds need to be explored and the best source or sources identified. An approach to possible sources of funds then needs to be prepared.
