      Portsmouth, NH (PRWEB) October 17, 2013 -- Direct Capital, a leading national small business lender, has been recognized as one of the fastest-growing companies in New Hampshire by a statewide business publication.

      Direct Capital’s place on the Business NH Magazine “Fast Five” list was secured by an average of 49.8% growth over the last three years, largest among any finance firm in the state.

      “The success of Direct Capital shouldn’t come as a surprise,” the magazine wrote. “After all, who should be better at effectively growing a company than one designed to help other businesses grow?"

      Our growth is a reflection of our ability to meet the lending needs of small businesses across the country and this award validates that we are making an impact.

      The company - which provides equipment financing, business loans, and working capital to small businesses - won the number-four spot on the list just weeks after being named to the Inc. 5000 and Monitor 100 lists of top growth companies.

      “We’re honored to be recognized as one of the top growth companies by Business NH magazine,” said Stephen Lankler, senior vice president at Direct Capital. “Our growth is a reflection of our ability to meet the lending needs of small businesses across the country and this award validates that we are making an impact.”

      Direct Capital also ranks eighth on the magazine’s list of the top 100 private companies in New Hampshire.

      Direct Capital was started in Portsmouth 20 years ago this November. Since its inception, the company has lent $2.25 billion to more than 80,000 businesses across over 1,000 different industries.

      Direct Capital’s growth has been accelerated by its unique, tech-enabled approach to delivering fast, easy, affordable financing to small businesses. No other online lending platform exists today to instantly deliver 30-day to seven-year financing for every major need of a small business, franchisee or customer of a large equipment vendor.
