Bank Decline Review

Declined by Your Bank? You May Still Have Financing Options.

A bank decline doesn't always mean the deal is dead. Tell us what happened and Blackstone Funding will evaluate whether another lender, financing structure, or type of capital may fit.

One bank's credit box is not the entire capital market.

A decline may reflect one lender's underwriting criteria, lending appetite, or internal policies. Another lender or financing structure may evaluate the same transaction differently.

Why Banks Decline Financing Requests

Cash Flow & Debt Service

The business may not meet the bank's required cash-flow or debt-service coverage.

Credit & Existing Leverage

Personal credit, business credit, or existing obligations may fall outside that bank's criteria.

Collateral & Transaction Structure

The bank may not be comfortable with the collateral, loan structure, property type, or use of proceeds.

Bank Policy & Lending Appetite

The transaction may fall outside the bank's preferred industry, geography, loan size, or internal lending strategy.

A decline may reflect the bank's credit box as much as the transaction itself.

The most important question isn't simply whether the bank said no. It's why they said no.

Tell us what happened and we'll evaluate whether the issue may be addressed with a different lender, financing structure, or type of capital.

Financing Facilitated

One lender evaluates a transaction against one credit box. Blackstone Funding evaluates financing requests across multiple categories of capital to determine whether another lender, structure, or financing solution may make sense.

Prior transactions are provided for illustrative purposes only. Financing availability, structure, amounts, and terms vary by borrower and transaction.

Multiple Capital Sources

Relationships across banks, SBA lenders, private credit, commercial real estate lenders, equipment lenders, and alternative capital sources.

Transaction-Focused Review

We evaluate the financing request based on the business, use of proceeds, cash flow, collateral, leverage, and transaction structure.

More Than One Credit Box

A decline from one lender does not automatically determine how another capital source may evaluate the transaction.
