Asset Based Lending Masterclass Part I of III. Raising Debt Capital for your Specialty Finance, Fintech Lending, or Alternative Lending Platform with Special Guest and Asset Backed Podcast Contributor Matt Edgar, Founder & CEO of Edgar Matthews

Matt Edgar, Founder & CEO of boutique investment bank Edgar Mathews & Co., and I are recording a three episode Masterclass in Asset Based Finance. In recent months specialty finance, asset based finance, and different related credit themes have gotten significant attention in the press and from market participants. Together Matt and I dive into the process of how a growing lending business raises debt financing. This content will be particularly beneficial we believe for startup, emerging, growth-stage and middle-market sized originators and lending businesses who are seeking to raise debt facilities from institutional capital providers. I hope you enjoy and join us on each of these special episodes.
