A Network of Sourcing Relationships

Relationships with venture capital funds, private equity sponsors, family offices and asset managers enhance our deal flow into sponsor-backed companies, referring financing needs from inside their own portfolios.
Venture Capital Funds
VC funds introduce portfolio companies that have outgrown venture debt and need asset-backed financing instead of further equity dilution.
Private Equity Sponsors
PE sponsors bring us platform companies and add-ons that need receivables or asset-backed facilities alongside their existing equity and debt, and co-invest with us in credit structures that complement their equity position.
Family Offices
Family offices with direct holdings or co-investment relationships surface financing needs from within their own portfolio companies.
Asset Managers
Asset managers refer opportunities that sit outside their own mandate by segment, size or structure, rather than compete with us for them.
Traditional Lenders
Traditional lenders refer facilities below their own minimum ticket size, giving us access to opportunities we would otherwise never see.
