The support you need to pursue your dreams
M&T Bank has the resources to help multicultural and other diverse-owned businesses with lending, planning, cybersecurity and more.
We’ve got your back
M&T Bank is proudly committed to supporting the successes of multicultural and other diverse-owned businesses in the communities that we serve. And while we offer a variety of loan options for both established entrepreneurs and startups, we’re more than just a lender. Our team of specialists can help you with everything from putting yourself in the best position for loan approval to helping your company combat fraud. We can provide resources to guide you through the process of creating an effective business plan, and we can be there for you to recommend the best point-of-sale system once you’re up and running. We’re invested in your success.
Plan for success
A great business begins with a great business plan. In fact, it’s a necessity for you to secure funding. We’ll guide you to the resources needed to create an effective business plan that shows you’ve got an actionable idea.
Your options for funding
Whether it’s a term loan, a line of credit, an SBA loan, multicultural and other diverse-owned businesses grants or venture capital funding, you’ve got options for getting the money you need to operate. Let our experts help you find the funding solution that’s right for your business.
Protect what you’re building
Cybercriminals are continuously developing increasingly sophisticated techniques to steal sensitive information from unsuspecting victims. And while many criminals specifically target small businesses because they expect less defense, you don’t have to be a victim. Our fraud experts can arm you with the tools and technology needed to shut down the hackers.
Let our experience helping multicultural and other diverse entrepreneurs pay off for you. Schedule an appointment with your local M&T branch.
