Venture Debt
Startup Financing
Investor-backed companies seeking growth look to venture debt as a strategic financial tool. Venture debt provides a cost-efficient supplement to the existing capital raised from investors. You can trust our expertise as a venture debt lender to assess funding options that can help fuel your momentum and grow with you as you achieve milestones and build the value of your enterprise.
What Is Venture Debt?1
Venture debt financing is a loan designed to extend runway and can be a valuable financing option to supplement venture capital for growing companies. Our bankers can advise you on the many benefits of venture debt after an equity round.
- Preserves ownership: Venture debt offers economic upside for investors, founders and employees as the least dilutive financing option.
- Extends your company's cash runway: Venture debt funding extends runway, providing additional time for the company to reach value milestones prior to the next equity round.
- Fund projects leading to growth: Use venture debt to hire or bolster a sales team, enhance marketing initiatives, invest in research and development or buy capital equipment.
