Time to File Your Annual Commercial Financing Report in California
March 15th is the deadline for covered commercial financing providers to file their first annual report with the State of California. According to the DFPI, “any person engaged in the business of offering or providing commercial financing or another financial product or service to a small business, nonprofit, or family farm whose business activities are principally directed or managed from California” is required to file the report.
Per the state on exemptions:
Covered providers, as defined in California Code of Regulations, title 10, section 1060(e), are required to file this report. If you are not a covered provider under section 1060(e)(2) because you conduct all commercial financing under the authority of your CFL license, you are not required to file this report.
To determine if your company is or is not required to file a report, please consult with an industry knowledgeable attorney. If you need a list of potential attorneys in this field, please email info@debanked.com.
