Your real odds
NMDC has distributed over 70 grants totaling more than $1M in a single relief round, which signals real regional capacity even though approval odds are not publicly disclosed.
NMDC is a regional lender with a community development mission, so the bar is more accessible than traditional bank financing, but loan approval still depends on your business financials and your location.
