Welcome to BPI-Loans, your trusted source for loan information and resources since 2015. We launched BPI-Loans to educate consumers and small businesses on the wide variety of financing options available to them while providing transparency into loan terms, conditions, and the application process.
Over the past 8 years, BPI-Loans has grown into the leading destination for objective and authoritative loan guidance online. We offer insights and advice to help borrowers understand complex loan products so they can make informed decisions when taking on financing.
Our Mission
Our mission is to empower consumers and small business owners by equipping them with the knowledge needed to confidently evaluate loans and select the best product for their situation. We are committed to being an unbiased resource that explains both the benefits and drawbacks of various borrowing options.
We strive to build financial literacy around loans and credit so borrowers can make sound choices aligned with their near and long-term goals. By providing clear, comprehensive loan information and education, we aim to set borrowers up for success as they navigate major purchases and other financial needs requiring outside financing.
Our Experience
With over 30 years of combined experience in financial services and lending, our team has the expertise needed to break down complicated loan topics into easy-to-understand guides.
Our co-founders met while working as loan officers at a large national bank. Through firsthand experience, they saw the challenges borrowers faced in understanding complex loans and their frustration with the lack of transparency from lenders.
After seeing consumers struggle to get the loan information they need to make informed decisions time and time again, our founders envisioned creating a resource to finally fill this gap. In 2015, BPI-Loans was born with consumer advocacy at its core.
In addition to our founders’ expertise, BPI-Loans has a staff of financial analysts, former lenders, consumer credit counselors, and small business consultants contributing their knowledge to our publication.
