What type of account would be used for funding dollars for future loans to clients?

Money is deposited from investors for loans to clients. The dollars are usually moved the same day to fund the new loans to clients. I am not sure on what type of account is used to identify these funds that are in suspense until released for the loans.

Hi @LNS Group LLC 

 

You may need to speak with an accountant on what's the best way to account for this money. Based on your description, that money is held by the business to fund your business activity (in this case, to fund future loans to your clients). In that case, I believe that money falls under restricted cash which is money that is reserved for a specific purpose and therefore not available for immediate or general business use. Such money is reported separately in your balance sheet as an asset. You may classify that money as either current or non-current asset depending on how long it's expected to remain restricted. Hope this helps!
