We are among the few niche capital providers in Canada that provide loans to growing companies through our lending arm, FirePower Capital.
These companies often lack tangible collateral and face significant challenges securing growth capital. Chartered bank funding may be nuanced or insufficient to accomplish their growth objectives, and equity, when available, may be expensive given the dynamic of valuation multiples and the inherent dilution of ownership. We fill this gap with speed, certainty, and structure.
We typically lend to service, tech-enabled and technology businesses that have robust and growing revenue streams. We also provide asset manager/fund finance and, at times, pursue other types of interesting debt opportunities that we come across. We do not invest in resources and bio-sciences companies.
We pride ourselves on being solution focused, creative in deal structuring and being able to deliver quickly when deadlines are tight. Our borrowers value this.
