Debt Financing
1858’s principals have a long history of working with senior lenders, mezzanine finance groups, and alternative lenders. Navigating the appropriate debt stack for an operating business or acquisition can, at times, seem a very daunting task for a client to “go it alone.” 1858 will assist in both finding the right debt provider(s) and help in analyzing structural elements of any proposed debt to ensure our client has adequate liquidity and the ability to service the proposed debt comfortably.
