Tribal Lending Partnerships

What We Do at Leaning Rock Finance

“I have been studying your business trying to match our services/products to your business. It is hard to do without fully understanding what you do.”

Brian, typically, a federally recognized Native American Indian tribe will reach out to us in an effort to enter the business of lending money to the masses via E-commerce. Tribes meeting our criteria are often geographically challenged [no casino potential], lack natural resources, have little infrastructure, zero capital, no network to explore the opportunities… to monetize their unique sovereign status.

We receive inquiries from family offices, venture capitalists, Wall Street, investors… who have access to substantial capital they desire to employ by collaborating with tribes to export B2C loans across approx. 37 states thereby negating the need to invest 6- 12 months to secure state-by-state loan licensing and the substantial costs associated with these efforts. 

Our Team of industry veterans at Leaning Rock Finance is the “glue” and the “expertise” that enables these collaborations to occur and to succeed in changing the lives of members of “Indian Country,” serve the 40% of U.S. households who cannot access $400 cash when facing a sudden financial emergency, [dental work, car needed for work breaks down, utility bill overdue causing disconnect and reconnect fees, avoid $37 bank NSF fee for a small check they’ve written…]

Perhaps your Bank [OSB] has “Indian Country” clients/tribes who would find these scenarios of interest? OSB could provide introductions? OSB could provide operating, depository accounts, ACH transactions… for the millions of dollars in transactions that occur between the tribes and the 3rd party vendors, service providers, consumers… that transpire?

In addition to reviewing our services, take a look at https://nativefinance.org/  NAFSA the “Native American Financial Services Association.” 

We have the expertise & willingness to help educate the OSB Team in regards to entering our industry. 

As an industry veteran in banking, you certainly know that the majority of large, incumbent banks simply lack interest in our space. There are HUGE opportunities for bankers having the desire – and quite honestly the intestinal fortitude – to invest the time and energy to build in-house compliance and regulatory expertise. The business of lending to the masses is but one. “Bank discontinuance” and “Operation Chokepoint” are still issues looking for solutions and providers. Perhaps OSB could be one. 

In essence, and as stated on our website https://LeaningRockFinance.com , we:
