Capital Partnerships Aequum recently secured a $250 million debt facility with Wells Fargo, signaling readiness to scale lending and seek additional bank and alternative capital partners to support higher origination volumes and favorable funding terms.

SMB Access The company targets small businesses that cannot secure traditional bank financing, presenting an opportunity to source more borrowers through partnerships with industry platforms, associations, and referral networks while expanding ESG aligned loan offerings.

Tech Enablement As a tech enabled lender, there is room to partner on underwriting analytics, risk scoring, API integrations, and cybersecurity to improve efficiency and scale while maintaining low overhead.
