Legacy Corporate Lending, an independent asset-based lending company focused on serving the needs of middle market companies across North America, appointed Lisa DeSantis Adams as managing director of originations.
Adams adds over three decades of financial services leadership across ABL, leveraged finance, mergers & acquisitions and structured finance. Prior to Legacy, she served as senior vice president for business development at Gibraltar Business Capital, where she focused on originating middle market, asset-based loan opportunities across the western United States. Adams previously held senior bank and non-bank lending roles at UMB Bank, Sterling National Bank, CIBC and Wells Fargo Capital Finance.
“Our team and our clients are both poised to benefit from Lisa’s leadership, leveraging her relationships and track record of success throughout a myriad of lending environments,” Clark Griffith, CEO of Legacy, said. “As we continue to grow our diversified ABL offerings, we look forward to Lisa’s contributions, which we believe will provide our client base with high-quality solutions to meet the evolving needs of the modern lending market.”
“Amidst the boom of asset-based lending within private credit, Legacy has continually provided its clients with best-in-class tailored solutions,” Adams said. “I look forward to helping the firm continue to deepen its long-term partnerships with clients and continue to grow its book of business.”
