Aequum Capital Financial, a specialty finance lender backed by Castlelake, closed a new $250 million debt facility lead by Wells Fargo.
The facility will be used to further support Aequum’s mission of providing customized senior debt solutions ranging from $5 million to $35 million to small and medium-sized businesses across the United States. The additional capacity enables Aequum to execute on both organic growth opportunities, participations and potential portfolio acquisitions in the specialty finance sector.
“This transaction with Wells Fargo represents a significant milestone for Aequum,” John Stanfield, CEO of Aequum Capital, said. “It not only validates the strength of our platform and our institutional backing by Castlelake, but also positions us to deliver even greater value to our borrowers, investors, and partners as we continue our rapid growth trajectory.”
