Nor-Cal FDC

Nor-Cal Financial Development Corporation (Nor-Cal FDC) is a private, non-profit entity established in 1979. It is licensed by the California Infrastructure and Economic Development Bank (IBank) to administer the State Loan Guarantee Program (SLGP). The company's mission is to facilitate access to capital for small businesses within a 20-county region of Northern California, thereby helping to create jobs and improve the economic vitality of the local communities it serves. They work in partnership with commercial lenders to provide loan guarantees, which helps small businesses that may not meet conventional underwriting standards to secure financing.
