When senior lending doesn’t get you where you need to grow, junior secured lending through Steel City may be an answer. By leveraging capital with pricing more favorable compared to unsecured mezzanine debt and without diluting equity, junior secured lending can fill important gaps in your capital structure and provide the critical financing needed to achieve your goals.
When a traditional asset based or cash flow structure is insufficient, a stretch cash flow layer of financing may be a good fit. As a hybrid structure between cash flow and asset based senior lending, companies are able to obtain the capital they need when asset value or cash flow by themselves may not be enough to meet their objectives.
