                   Celebrating 25 YEARS OF CREATING ACCESS
                   In 2012, our 25th year of operation, the BBIF continued on its journey to build a more sustainable organization;
                   expanding its services and its geographic territory. The Fund’s ten-year Strategic Plan clearly outlines investments
                   needed to ensure the necessary capital for loan funds, loan fund reserves, staff capacity and infrastructure building.

                   2012 was a year of continued accomplishments for the BBIF. After tripling the size of our assets and servicing clients
                   statewide in 2010–2012, our organization has moved that much closer toward reaching our goal of $20,000,000 by
Enhancing          October 2015. Over the last three years, BBIF has maintained an asset level of $14 million. In 2012, operating costs
 Business          declined by 16% due to a more efficient operation.

 Capacity          BBIF made a number of accomplishments in 2012, which included:
                          • Expanded partnerships
                          • Established and increased capital for two new loan funds
                          • Increased capital for operations
                          • Began implementation of the (SBA Community Advantage) Small Business Loan Fund
                          • Expanded statewide services and expanded staff
                          • Launched new, easy-to-use Internet technology, website features and forms

                   BBIF made significant progress in expanding its Loan Committee in 2012. With inclusion of both the public and
                   private sectors, the new loan committee members are a reflection of BBIF’s efforts to make the committee more
                   representative of our statewide focus to provide capital to black, minority and underserved small businesses
                   in Florida.

                   BBIF maintains a professional staff; combined, staff members have over 80 years of business and financial services
                   experience. In 2012, BBIF brought on 3 new staff members inclusive of a Junior Loan Officer, Technical Assistance
                   Officer and Loan Processor. This group of dedicated personnel is committed to the BBIF’s mission.

                   The growth and accomplishments of 2012 have helped strengthen BBIF’s capacity. This has enabled the organization
                   to continue to expand its loan and technical assistance services statewide, expanding our geographic territory
                   and thus providing financial resources and services to a greater amount of black, minority and underserved small
                   businesses.

Technical Assistance program is to strengthen business owner’s management skills, resulting in stronger capacity
businesses that grow and employ more of Florida’s citizens.

BBIF delivers technical assistance in the following formats:

Business Owners Roundtable
Monthly roundtables allow for business owners to meet monthly in a group setting with other business presidents
and BBIF’s technical assistance team (consultants). In these monthly roundtable meetings business owners receive
coaching in finance, marketing, strategic planning, bond assistance, cost analysis, budgeting, bookkeeping,
human resources and law.

In this specialized financial technical assistance, businesses are provided an “initial assessment”. This assessment
consists of an evaluation of financial, accounting and operational systems and provides the business owners
feedback with written recommendations for overall business improvement. As a result of this type of intense
technical assistance, business owners develop stronger management skills yielding stronger businesses with the
capacity to create more jobs.

businesses.

                                             less on cash flow in that critical formative period. The staff at BBIF does an excellent
                                          job of reaching out to the underserved business community and helping to bridge the
                                                        opportunity gap that results from access to capital. Additionally, the BBIF

A LOOK BACK, 2012’s MOST NOTEWORTHY ACCOMPLISHMENT
                       Black Business Investment Fund (BBIF)
                    Launches Statewide Small Business Loan Fund

       In October 2012 BBIF launched a new, race-neutral, statewide loan initiative for minority and underserved small
       businesses in Florida. Titled the Small Business Loan Fund (SBLF), loans are provided with a (Community Advantage)
       Small Business Administration (SBA) guarantee. The loan sizes range between $50,000 - $250,000 and funds can be
       used for working capital, equipment and certain real estate transactions.

       The SBA Community Advantage program is a pilot initiative aimed at increasing the number of SBA 7(a) lenders
       who reach underserved communities, targeting community-based, mission-focused financial institutions which were
       previously not able to offer SBA loans. BBIF is the only approved SBA Community Advantage lender in the state of
       Florida, and one of only 57 in the U.S. Earning the Community Advantage lender approval was a very competitive
       process, and BBIF’s selection recognizes the quality of the organization.

       In preparation of the official initiative launch BBIF held regional kick-off meetings in Jacksonville, Miami, Orlando
       and Tampa in collaboration with the Florida SBA District Offices and regional Small Business Development Center’s
       throughout Florida.
