Relationship Banking at its Best

TD Bank has openly communicated its focus on a collaborative model with small business customers and communities, stating their approach to provide business owners with trusted advice and leveraging local relationship teams who serve as trusted advisors to their respective small business community. The success of this model as it relates to SBA lending is reflected in the bank’s seven-year run as the top SBA lender in its Maine-to-Florida footprint.

"In this economy, it’s important for small business owners to partner with the right lender who takes time to understand their unique needs and goals,” said Amy Dinkar-Patel, Head of Small Business & Commercial Distribution at TD Bank.
