Need More Working Capital

Long-term (more than one year) working capital is the most difficult item to finance. Most banks rely on Lines of Credit (LOC), which are less than one year loans. As companies grow is has a permanent need for additional working capital as more funds get tied up in inventory. This is called permanent working capital.

Other times companies land major contracts and need a short-term flux of capital for a single project. 

There are a few ways companies can find additional permanent working capital while growing, especially if additional equipment or buildings are needed.
