Aequum Capital
“Aequum” is latin for “what is right/fair/equitable”. Small businesses that don’t qualify for bank loans have many options available to them, however often times these options come with conditions that make it difficult for small businesses to succeed. We believe that relationships are the key to success and as such, hold Trust, Integrity, and Respect, as part of our core values. At Aequum, we strive to provide financing that is right, fair, and equitable to all parties. Aequum is a company started by five career lending executives and entrepreneurs with over 100 years of collective experience. We are a tech-enabled commercial lending platform for companies looking to find financing between $2MM and $15MM who are not otherwise eligible for traditional bank financing. Aequum’s platform allows for efficient underwriting, funding, servicing, and portfolio management to ensure low overhead costs that can be passed on to our borrowers. We are taking a consultative lending approach and bringing Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) policies to improve our borrower’s operations and ultimately provide a path to traditional bank financing. Using this strategy, we will create an ecosystem where each stakeholder in the process (the borrowers, bank partners, investors, and sponsorship) are incentivized to optimize ESG philosophies, in particular governance, at the borrowers level.
