Morning Fintech Blueprint team. Sharing the news that Charlotte-based commercial lending startup, Foro, emerged from stealth this morning as it looks to increase access to capital for business owners and streamline the lending process for banks/lenders. The launch comes at a critical time as both business owners and lenders look to maintain the flow of commercial loans amid continued economic uncertainty.

Traditionally, connecting SMBs with commercial lenders is a time-consuming, relationship-based process that often leads to a host of biases for business owners – in fact, over 80% of small business loans are rejected (even higher for disadvantaged business owners). Foro guides businesses through the complex commercial lending process in a data-driven, objective manner, and matches them with financial institutions that are the best fit for their funding needs in a fraction of the time.

Foro launches with a previously unannounced $8M Series A round led by TTV Capital, and is backed by investors including former chairman and CEO of Bank of America, Hugh McColl Jr. Happy to connect you with Foro CEO Dave Godsman to learn more about the platform + launch. Looking forward to your thoughts,

Alan
