We loan because...
Capital and business make the world go round; trade is a stabilizing force. Offering non-usurious loans to help people start businesses to provide others with goods and services they need or want is what capitalism is all about. We are all proud capitalists, and some of us are even unrepentant.

About us
Free markets, free minds. Hayek, Mises, Friedman.
