The two are not comparable. The purpose of a bridge loan is a short term chunk of cash to carry through a brief period while other financing is pending; outstanding receivables are coming due or other unique situations where other money is pending. A small business loan is typically not attached to pending money- but money making potential. Posted May 15, 2008 |
