In recent years, the European mid-market segment has seen a significant increase in funding deriving from outside the traditional banking sector. Partly due to reduced risk appetite among banks and tighter laws and regulations, more and more funds, so-called debt funds, provide financing to the corporate sector.
Within this maze of possible lenders, each with their own specific niche and funding criteria, ICC has contacts with over 100 domestic and international non-bank lenders. Because of the vast differences between these lenders, it is important to work with an advisor who knows this market thoroughly and has experience in smoothly navigating an intensive and time-consuming financing process.
