Accompany Capital was first created to help resettled refugees in New York City start micro or small businesses to support themselves and their families. Over the years, we expanded our services to support immigrants and other under served entrepreneurs as well, but our commitment to refugees has always remained steadfast.

Recently, due to a sharp increase in rent and cost of living in New York, more and more refugees are settling in New Jersey. It is with great pleasure, therefore, that we announce we have expanded our services to include refugees in living in New Jersey and have already made our first three loans.

In 2018, Accompany Capital joined the SBA's Community Advantage Pilot Program, allowing access to SBA loan guarantees for nonprofit loan funds that specialize in serving groups whom the SBA has historically failed to reach. Earlier this month, the SBA announced several changes including the end of a 4-year moratorium on new nonprofit loan funds joining the Community Advantage Pilot Program, and it’s also extending the program’s sunset date from the end of this year to 2024.

We think this year's Accompany Capital Immigrant Heritage Week Awards was one of our very best with important, inspiring messages from NYC Mayor's Office of Immigrant Affairs Commissioner Manuel Castro and NYC Department of Small Business Services Commissioner Kevin D. Kim, as well as great videos of our terrific awardees!

One of the questions clients often ask about Accompany Capital financing is how we work with the Small Business Administration. Our partnership with the SBA is a longstanding and successful one and we are particularly recognizant of the SBA’s significant contribution in providing a lifeline to small businesses as the pandemic threatened to cause so many businesses to fail.

Please note our new Financial District address is 11 Broadway, Suite 1515. Our phone numbers and Queens address remain the same!
