FAQs

What is the optimal capital structure to access the market?

This really depends on the specific requirements of your business. We recommend you speak to your Relationship Manager for further information.

 

How much capital can we raise?

The quantity of debt financing available to a company is dependent upon a number of factors including the size of the company, the amount of cash generated from operations and the overall market conditions at the time of the financing.  We recommend that you speak with your Relationship Manager for further information.
