Finance
Investment finance
The restaurant has a number of options for raising finance that can be chosen from. In that respect, the most suitable financing option is one that suits the business model as well as the capital needs. The following is the list of the options
Personal finance
SME loan from the government
A joint venture
Bank loan
Franchise
chosen financial sourcing: Bank loan
Pecking order of Financing: Provided that all the business finances comes from debts, internal funding and new funding, how to acquire capital could require the consideration of suitability for all the available methods according to their priorities starting with the internal financing, debts, and issuing new equity respectively. Acquiring capital in a case like this can be viewed as the final option. The pecking order theory was indeed made to be known well by the argument of Swewart Myers that it could be less preferred to get capital because managers gives new equity (having assumption of knowing well about the condition of a company). Investors believe that managers overvalue a company and take some advantage from the over-valuation. Therefore, the investors tend to put lower price values at any newly issued equity. That theory holds that businesses adhere to financing hierarchy sources and prefers internal financial whenever it is available, whereas debt tends to be more preferred when compared to equity when an external financing is required.
Debts tend to be into two forms: Senior and subordinated. The senior debt of a bank is not too expensive like the subordinates, although has got covenant which are very extensive providing a leader with certain remedies in case the agreement is not fully met. Furthermore, many of the senior lenders tend to expect a firm`s debt to be well collateralized by personal guarantees, account receivables, the real estate, other firm`s assets or some sources for the secondary repayment if the flow of cash becomes insufficient to repay the debts. In case of liquidation, an obligation of the senior debts tends to take priority over other obligations of equity and debts, thus referred as Senior Debts. The senior debts at many cases tend to be less expensive option for financing, hence many firms prefers most of their financing to come from it, typically emanating from a banks. However, for many emerging growths, the balance sheet and high growth lights a company, the financing from the senior debt tend to be inadequate to cover their all requirements, making them to turn towards other forms of financing that are more common for an additional capital: Mezzanine and equity.
The business managers and owners are looking for financing comes a long a crucial decision concerning whether to make some borrowing or utilize new equity capital. Provided that debts and equity have got very varied features, every one of them have got varied effect on the earnings, cash-flow, as well as taxes and on the balance sheet. Also they have some different impact on a company`s dilution, the leverage and a host to other metrics of finance by which a company is measured. Lastly, every business financing option represents a very different kind of a relationship in comparison to financing source. Therefore, a firm plans on how to utilize its funds, kind of the relationship they wish to have together with the source of the capital and type/stage of a firm shall indeed greatly determining which is the best financing form.
Financing of debt involves borrowing of funds from the creditors with stipulation of paying back the und that had been borrowed plus the interest at the future date. For creditors (the lender), their reward for offering financing of the debt is interest on amount that has been lent to borrower.
Financing of debt may be unsecured or secured. Debts that are secured have collateral (valuable asset which can satisfy loan if the borrower default it). Equally, the debts that are not secured do not have collateral on them and the lender is placed at a position that is not secure relative to the loan repayment in case it’s defaulted.
Loan for debt financing may be long term or short term in repayment schedules. Usually, debts that are short term are used for financing of current activities like operations while debts that are long term are used in assets financing such as equipments and buildings.
Bank Loans
The private banks may be good funding source. For ventures that are new and small such as the steakhouse restaurant, the owner may be in a position of securing credit line or personal loan; for operation that are larger, one may be required to leverage their assets, inventories, large equipments or real estate to use them in securing loan as collateral. The advantage of borrowing money is one is enabled to keep their cash in hand for using for survival as person or as the operating capital during business down period. In addition, if the business does not perform, one may be in a position of protecting their personal assets that are most important by bankruptcy declaring. Disadvantages are; one has to pay the interest on loan. Additionally, one’s payments are due on the time despite whether business is performing or not.

Enhance ones cash flow as well as improve day-to-say operations of the business with DBS business loan. Borrow up to SGD 500,000 at interest rates that are attractive for a period of up to 5 years with this loans which are collateral free.
Features of the business loan terms that make the loan attractive to the business are as follows
Amount of loan: Up to S$500,000
Tenor of the loan to a period of 5 years
Rates of interest from 10.88 percent per year
Reasons the business should choose Business Term Loan from DBS
