Do I need a Dun and Bradstreet (D&B) report to get a business loan?

Answer:  Yes!,  Due to the US Patriot Act and “post 9-11” legislation to avoid illegal business activity, terrorism, loan fraud and money laundering, lenders are now required to verify information on the business entity and principals applying for financing.  If you do not have a D&B report and a DUNS number we highly recommend that we do this report for you to place you in the best possible position for financing as D&B is not in business to assist you with financing.  They merely collect information on companies that they sell to outside banks and other subscribers.  It is simply not in their best interest to see you obtain financing and it takes expert assistance to form a high quality report before loan applications are submitted.  If you submit a loan application without a “ DUNS” report as it is known or one which is incorrect or adverse to your business you will probably be declined by the lender.

As always, the business loan experts at GFS Business stand ready to assist you in securing business financing.
