Compilation

Personal Financial Statements
Lenders, and most equity investors, want to know not only about your business’s financial position, but also about the personal financial profile of the business’s owners. We can assist you in preparing a personal financial statement that outlines all the information that conventional lenders will want to know about your personal finances, from a description of your assets and liabilities to identification of your sources of income. We can help you get a good idea of what lenders are looking for, how your financial profile will appear to them, and the importance of carefully completing such a form before submitting it to a lender.
