You may think that you have ‘safety’ covered, but it is worth considering the potential issues a cyber attack could present and what you can do to prevent this happening.  Awareness of the need to protect your company from cyber threats has increased, but sometimes the basic measures are not considered. Your business may have established policies and procedures, but are these procedures checked regularly, and are they enforced?  [Read More](https://www.bayviewfunding.com/blog/cybersecurity-is-your-business-protected) 0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://www.bayviewfunding.com/blog/cybersecurity-is-your-business-protected#comments) Topics: [Commercial Financing](https://www.bayviewfunding.com/blog/topic/commercial-financing), [Cash Flow management](https://www.bayviewfunding.com/blog/topic/cash-flow-management), [Cyber security](https://www.bayviewfunding.com/blog/topic/cyber-security) ## [Business Forecasts for 2015](https://www.bayviewfunding.com/blog/business-forecasts-for-2015) Posted by [Aaron Zahedani](https://www.bayviewfunding.com/blog/author/aaron-zahedani) on Fri, Jan 09, 2015 @ 08:30 AM [![](https://www.bayviewfunding.com/hs-fs/hub/211725/file-2317559467-jpg/BVF_Images_and_Logos_/Global_GDP_map.jpg) ](https://www.bayviewfunding.com/blog/business-forecasts-for-2015) 2015 is looking good for business!

Let’s take a look at what the figures are indicating for 2015, both in America and overseas.  The good news for the New Year is that the acceleration of U.S. growth is a key reason that the global economy is also expected to grow faster, at about 3 percent, up from 2.5 percent in 2014, according to economists at JPMorgan Chase and IHS Global Insight.  [Read More](https://www.bayviewfunding.com/blog/business-forecasts-for-2015) 0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://www.bayviewfunding.com/blog/business-forecasts-for-2015#comments) Topics: [Manufacturing and Distribution Financing](https://www.bayviewfunding.com/blog/topic/manufacturing-and-distribution-financing), [Business Growth](https://www.bayviewfunding.com/blog/topic/business-growth), [Business Forecasts](https://www.bayviewfunding.com/blog/topic/business-forecasts) ## [Small Business Financing Options](https://www.bayviewfunding.com/blog/small-business-financing-options) Posted by [Aaron Zahedani](https://www.bayviewfunding.com/blog/author/aaron-zahedani) on Wed, Dec 10, 2014 @ 08:00 AM [![](https://www.bayviewfunding.com/hs-fs/hub/211725/file-2209323384-jpg/BVF_Images_and_Logos_/Financing_Options_12-10blog.jpg) ](https://www.bayviewfunding.com/blog/small-business-financing-options) Would it surprise you to know that most small businesses still consider the bank to be the first port of call when looking for a loan?

A recent ‘how-to’ guide in the online edition of the Wall Street Journal, discussed [how to pick a credit card for your business](http://guides.wsj.com/small-business/funding/how-to-pick-a-credit-card-for-your-business/).

She mentions the importance of maintaining a large enough talent pool to serve the staffing needs of the demographic area.
