By Erin Rafter

Alexandra Scoggin is a seasoned senior executive vice president with 20 years of expertise in asset-based lending, accounts receivable finance and business expansion. She specializes in structuring innovative financial solutions that drive growth across industries including oil and gas, construction, apparel, food and beverage, staffing and manufacturing.

One pivotal moment in her career was winning a $46 million facility opportunity she initially lost to a competitor. When the deal fell through during underwriting, the client returned. Scoggin collaborated closely with her underwriting team and CEO to deliver a flexible structure that met the client’s needs. Despite aggressive competition until the final funding stage, her responsiveness and ability to execute efficiently secured the win.

Scoggin sees herself as more than a lender — she’s a strategic resource. She values transparency and won’t push deals that aren’t a good fit. If needed, she refers clients to other lenders who may be better aligned. Her support extends beyond financing; she connects clients with key professionals in her network, including CPAs, attorneys, turnaround consultants and operational experts who help businesses grow and solve critical issues.

Setbacks are part of the job, but Scoggin doesn’t take them personally. She approaches challenges with patience, knowing that strong relationships can outlast individual deals. Her long-term perspective helps her navigate the ups and downs of a volatile industry with composure and focus.

With the market shifting toward more bankable transactions, Scoggin has adapted by strengthening partnerships with banks to support clients who may not yet qualify for traditional financing. She believes collaboration between alternative lenders and banks is more important than ever in today’s financial landscape.

Her advice to aspiring rainmakers: work hard, stay persistent and be patient. Success is built on consistency, resilience and adding value every step of the way. Reputation is earned — never assumed.
