TLR + Impact Reports in one click

The CDFI Fund's Transaction Level Reports (TLR) and impact reports are crucial for all CDFIs. We will build a system to keep your organization's most important data at your fingertips. You can track your financing pipeline, production, and impact over time by stage, loan type, funder, and target market characteristics.

Features Overview

The best-in-class enterprise Customer Relationship Management (CRM) solution.

Salesforce enables you to build strong, lasting relationships with all your constituents by providing a centralized source of truth regarding your interactions with clients, funders, and partners.

Our CDFI Accelerator includes a core structure that streamlines the loan origination process and related workflows, accelerating the time between the first point of contact with a potential client and a successful closing.

We tailor online intake and application forms and portals to your needs that seamlessly integrate with Salesforce, providing an experience for your potential clients and staff that is easy, flexible, and unique to your organization.

The Technical Assistance (TA) and coaching provided by CDFIs distinguishes you from commercial lenders.

Whether you wish to record basic TA hours, complex SBA Nexus reporting, or something in between, we have the experience to facilitate TA tracking and reporting.

This experience includes capturing event registration and attendance, business consulting goals and outcomes, and TA partner relationships.

Our CDFI Accelerator helps you tell your story through vivid dashboards and reports that illustrate impact and outcomes over time, by target market, and by funder.

We offer tools such as integrated online forms to capture annual impact data and geocoding solutions that automatically identify target market characteristics such as income levels, investment areas, and more.

We make generating the CDFI Fund TLR and Address reports easy by building the required fields into our CDFI Accelerator structure.

We will work with you to ensure that clean data is populated at the optimal time so that the TLR can be generated at the click of a button.

Effective underwriting is critical for your organization’s success.

We customize risk evaluation solutions (including credit pulls, OFAC checks, financial statements access, and identity verification in Salesforce using our partner Laser Credit), create risk rating matrices, calculate ratios such as debt service coverage and leverage, and integrate Salesforce with Microsoft Excel for more sophisticated spreads and financial modeling.

Funders want to know the impact of their contributions. Your organization needs to know where the money for their loans is coming from.

Our solution enables you to match loans to funding sources so you can track committed and pending fund amounts, as well as funds available for new loans.

This connection also enables you to track loans and impact by funder and ensures that your organization remains compliant.

Our Checklist Manager solution allows you to track all the documents, tasks, and closing requirements for loan applicants in a centralized fashion.

We have streamlined the document collection process using online forms where applicants can upload files.

These files are fed automatically into Salesforce and tracked as received in Checklist Manager, then saved by the system in a document storage tool (such as Box, Egnyte, or SharePoint).

We have built custom online forms and portals to manage and track individual and institutional investor relationships, from the first point of contact with a potential investor to rollover processes and finally to investment termination, whether the funds are paid back or converted to a donation.

CTG has developed tools that will facilitate GGRF pipeline management and reporting.

Leveraging business intelligence tools, we can help you generate the reporting that will be required by federal agencies.
