Partner for deal success
Cerebro recognized the need for middle market companies to source loans faster and more efficiently. CFOs were running manual RFPs, which included countless phone calls to individual lenders, hours compiling spreadsheets, and answering constant questions and follow up questions, only to repeat the process numerous times to get an estimate of market terms.
Cerebro’s commercial loan software and transaction team does more than connect borrowers with qualified lenders—we streamline the entire RFP process from start to close and ensuring that borrowers get the best terms in the market.
