Western provides senior secured loans to private equity-owned, U.S.-based middle market companies. Structuring each individual opportunity requires a high level of craftsmanship, which is why these 3 principles drive our strategy – every day, every deal. Our Corporate Finance Group is based on our commitment to deliver superb, innovative, and ever-improving services to our clients, while offering unique fulfillment to our colleagues. For us, it all begins with our clients. In all our professional relationships, we commit to trust, which means we can and will do what we say.
As part of Western, we have access to stable funds that allow us to craft one-of-a-kind lending structures. Our clients depend on our core team’s experience, stability and reputation to provide a steady hand through all stages of each transaction.
