How can AsiaBC help SMEs to get loans?

Credit Score

Credit Report is the records of your personal behaviors of financing, it tells your possible lenders that you are a “good” or “bad” borrower.
Your bad credit history leads to bad credit scores – a rating of your credibility in a snapshot; Bad credit score results in higher interest rates and harder to get personal and business loans.
AsiaBC can’t rebuild your credit score but we assist you to correct your credit history which in turn improve your credit score since some mistakes on your credit report can be fixed.
Failed applications of loans from financial institutions (e.g. banks) hurt your credit score, they are recorded in your Credit Report. More failure applications in your credit report means harder acquisition of loans.
