Abacus Finance: Streamlined Legal Services Enable a Client’s Competitive Advantage
Abacus Finance was founded in 2011 by experienced commercial financiers with a unique vision. They sought to finance an under-served but important and growing group of borrowers – lower-to-middle market pioneer enterprises backed by family capital or private equity sponsors. Their goal, as a senior lender in a range of sophisticated sponsor-backed leveraged recapitalizations and buyouts, was to provide these enterprises with $10 – $50 million in capital through senior secured debt and equity investments in a quick, custom, and cost-effective manner while minimizing risk.
