Bankable is a nonprofit lender that seeks to create opportunities for all entrepreneurs in Indiana by providing access to capital, financial education, and economic resources to build healthy small businesses. The Bankable team works with entrepreneurs at any stage of business to build their credit, secure capital, increase financial literacy, and grow sound business foundations to make them Bankable for the future. Being Bankable means that we work to finance, educate, and support small business owners with the goal of getting them to the point where their credit, financial standing, and business know-how qualifies them for traditional funding. Bankable offers three different loan products: Credit Builder Loans, Microloans, and Community Advantage Loans. Our loans range from $500 up to $250,000. We work with for-profit business owners and entrepreneurs who are in need of capital and are unable to secure funds from a traditional bank. In addition to lending, our loan officers and business advisers work with clients to coach them on a wide range of technical assistance topics. We also have relationships with many other financial institutions and community organizations that make up a network of support for entrepreneurs in need of business advising and guidance.
