Yes, as the CFO I would finance my projects as soon as possible if the cost of capital is expected to drop. This strategy takes advantage of any potential decrease in borrowing costs, mitigating risk associated with rising financing expenses and making it easier to achieve a positive return on investment.

Additionally, depending on what type of loan is being applied for (fixed-rate or variable-rate), monitoring the Federal Reserve’s target rate and future expectations can also help anticipate future changes in available credit markets which could influence decisions when deciding whether now best time start project not rather wait little longer accumulate more funds cushion blow should something happen unexpectedly.
