At Live Oak Bank, we’re on a mission to be America’s small business bank. Part of that mission includes our inclusive small business approach to unlocking capital for minority-owned, veteran-owned and women-owned businesses that traditionally lacked access to funding.
We are creating an ecosystem to bridge capital, capacity, and education for minority, women, and veteran entrepreneurs. First, our experienced team will work with you to understand your business goals and financial position. From there, we’ll explain your options for getting the necessary resources to meet your business goals. We believe every business owner deserves the opportunity to drive economic growth in their communities.
Capital is just one way we invest in you
Lending
Our team will work to understand your business model and objectives as we help you and your business determine the correct type of financing and prepare for capital access. From preparation to transition, our team connects with each entrepreneur personally and will break down the loan process from application to funding and beyond.
Banking
At Live Oak Bank, we remove monthly account fees, offer competitive interest rates and put small business customers at the center of every decision we make. Learn more about our small business banking account options.
Education
The Pathway to Capital program believes in meeting entrepreneurs where they are in their unique journey and guiding every step. This approach goes far beyond most financial institutions’ approve or deny mentality.
Each business in the Pathway to Capital program is paired with a relationship manager to connect them with appropriate solutions to help position their business for capital readiness and long-term success. We seek, serve and invest in impactful solutions to help small businesses thrive.
