This session is for anyone who may need to borrow money and raise capital for their cooperative business. Participants will learn 1) what kind of money they might need for their business, 2) how lenders and investors evaluate a loan request, 3) how to be sure that the worker-owners maintain control of their capital, and 4) how the cooperative can best prepare for and represent itself through the borrowing process. We will explore healthy lending practices, and how debt has historically been used to extract wealth from communities. This session will involve presentation, facilitated discussion, and interactive activities.
