Government Funding & Incentives
Unlock the Resources to Fuel Your Ambitions
Navigating the complexities of government funding opportunities can be daunting, but Highwater Bound makes it simple. We help businesses access grants, loans, tax incentives, and investments tailored to their needs.
Understanding Government Funding and Its Importance
Government funding refers to financial resources made available by federal and state government agencies or international development banks to support business growth, innovation, and operations in financial services and fintech. These funds can be in the form of grants, tax incentives, loans and loan guarantees, or other forms of investment. Government funding programs are often non-dilutive and represent significant financial opportunities. Despite their scale, these programs are often underutilized due to complex application processes and lack of awareness. Highwater Bound helps clients tap into these resources, turning them into powerful enablers of growth and innovation.
Examples of Funding Amounts:
Government funding programs can range from as little as $50,000 for smaller programs to over $1 billion for large-scale projects, depending on the nature and scope of the initiative.
Key Funding Focus Areas:
New hiring and job retention, research and development, capital investment, workforce training, expansion into developing countries, clean energy, product development
Government Funding Successes: Recent Wins for Fintechs and Financial Firms
We are not tax specialists; therefore, we may collaborate with your tax advisor or accounting firm to facilitate the processing of any tax incentives we identify.
We are not a registered broker-dealer under FINRA regulations. Our services are advisory in nature and do not include solicitation, negotiation, or execution of securities transactions, such as the sale or transfer of equity, debt securities, or other investment instruments. Our work with grants, commercial loans, and tax credits involves non-securities financial transactions and therefore are generally not subject to FINRA regulation. Our fee structures depend on the type of services provided.
