Square 1 Bank provided a $45 million credit facility to existing client New State Capital Partners, a private equity firm specializing in middle-market investments.
Proceeds from the facility will be used to secure new investment opportunities and bridge timing between capital calls.
Located in Larchmont, NY, New State Capital Partners invests in companies across a variety of sectors including business services, industrials and healthcare services. New State’s typical investment ranges between $10 million to $50 million of equity in companies with $8 million to $30 million of EBITDA.
