Welcome back to The BDO Show—where deals get closed, liquidity gets questioned, and no borrower (or lender) is safe.

💰 Need cash to close? Wondering if your liquidity is enough? Or just here for the chaos? In this episode, we dive deep into liquidity in SBA lending—how much you really need, how to structure deals when borrowers are short, and the biggest liquidity mistakes BDOs make.

Join Emily Detor, Alan Peterson, Chris Hackney, Sterling Birdsong, and Ryan Kroge as they discuss:

🔥 Why undercapitalization is the #1 reason businesses fail
🏦 Creative liquidity solutions (because not everyone has a rich uncle)
💡 The art vs. science of post-closing liquidity
📉 When a borrower’s balance sheet is lying to you
🛑 The mistakes that lead to clawbacks and early defaults

This episode is packed with real stories, expert insights, and some truly questionable financial decisions—so don’t miss it!
