Loans And Lending
"Commercial loans" is a term commonly used to designate
loans not ordinarily maintained by either the real estate or consumer
loan departments. In asset distribution, commercial or business
loans frequently comprise one of the most important assets of a national bank. They may be secured or unsecured and for short or long-term maturities. Such loans include working capital advances, term business loans, agricultural credits, and
loans to individuals for business purposes.
Working capital or seasonal loans provide temporary capital in excess of normal needs. They are used to finance seasonal needs and are repaid at the end of the cycle by converting inventory and accounts receivable into cash. Firms engaged in manufacturing, distribution, retailing, and service oriented businesses use short-term working capital loans. In many banks, agricultural loans make up a large percentage of the commercial loan portfolio. Medium-term (1 to 5 years) lending generally represents capital goods financing, shipping loans and various specialized credits. Long-term loans (those exceeding 5 years) are normally used to finance extensive projects of multinational corporations, foreign governments, or foreign state-entities.
