Nov 13, 2024 · Funding your business is one of the first — and most important — financial choices most business owners make. How you choose to fund your business could affect how you structure and run your business. Every business has different needs, and no financial solution is one-size-fits-all.

Find funding to start or grow your business, or to help you recover after a declared disaster. Start or expand your business with loans guaranteed by the Small Business Administration. Find an investor for your business. Investors make both debt and equity investments.

The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) helps small businesses get funding by setting guidelines for loans and reducing lender risk. These SBA-backed loans make it easier for small businesses to get the funding they need.
