Cannabis Industry Challenges and Solutions | Why We Built EquiRate AI

Cannabis Industry Turbulence and the Need for Inclusive Lending

The cannabis industry is operating in a period of constant turbulence.

From federal policy problems to state-level setbacks, operators and stakeholders are navigating a business environment marked by challenge, uncertainty, and rapid change. In moments like this, one question matters more than most: how are businesses preparing, and who is bringing real solutions to the table?

In this short video, Eric Foster, Board Chairman of Cannas Capital Holdings and lead on the EquiRate AI initiative, explains why Cannas Capital created EquiRate AI.

The issue is straightforward. Many lending and underwriting structures used in cannabis finance are still based on traditional business assumptions that do not fully reflect the realities of cannabis businesses, especially minority-owned firms. That creates barriers to approval, capital access, and more inclusive market growth.

EquiRate AI is designed to help address that problem by supporting a more informed and equitable underwriting approach for the cannabis industry.
