We&rsquo;re back again with Chris Robles, who works to help find and provide funding for underserved borrowers. Today, Chris explains two important acronyms for these borrowers to know: CDFI and SBDP. The CDFI -- Community Development Financial Institution -- is funding to provide loans that banks typically would not provide. The SBDP -- Small Business Development Program -- is a program paired with universities that can provide counseling and support for small business owners. Chris explains how underserved borrowers can utilize these different programs to secure the funding they need!
