COMMERCIAL FINANCE
With business development companies as a
group continuing to trade around 80% of book
value, essentially prohibiting their ability to raise
equity capital, commercial finance companies
would generally screeched to a halt. BDCs,
however, are willing to opportunistically consider
commercial finance continue to be an attractive
option for growing specialty finance companies
as a source of capital, especially debt that can
be treated as equity capital and levered with
cheaper senior debt from traditional lender
finance providers such as Wells Fargo and
Capital One.
