Jeffrey Sweeney’s Article “Banking on IP” Published by ABL Advisor
SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB) November 10, 2017 -- ABL Advisor, a leading online resource for the asset-based lending community, has published an insightful article on IP financing by Jeffrey Sweeney, Chairman and CEO at US Capital Partners Inc.
Entitled “Banking on IP: An Insider’s Perspective,” Sweeney’s article explains how to identify and value IP assets, including unused “Rembrandts” sitting in the corporate IP attic, what main asset-based loan structures are available for patents, what the minimum deal size is and what finance rates are typically available, and what to consider when qualifying a potential borrower.
Sweeney is an investment banker and fund manager with years of experience in direct lending and corporate finance for small to lower middle market businesses. Headquartered in San Francisco, his firm US Capital Partners Inc. is a full-service private financial group that specializes in making traditional middle market banking products and services available to the lower middle market.
“In today’s ‘knowledge economy,’ promising businesses are increasingly built on intangible assets, especially their patents and trademarks,” said Sweeney. “When a traditional asset-based lender may only be able to offer limited availability to an IP-rich client, collaborating with a suitable IP lender can help salvage the deal, by providing the additional availability needed while allowing any existing asset-based lenders to retain their senior positions.”
ABL Advisor is an innovative online publishing resource designed specifically to meet the evolving informational needs of the asset-based lending community. Its mission is to consistently deliver the highest quality, most engaging and resource-rich publishing resources available to commercial finance professionals nationally.
