Essex Capital Group, Inc. successfully arranged a $500,000 bridge loan for one of the largest crane companies in the Midwest.  The financing was put in place in five business days, from initial information exchange to funding.
 
The new capital was used to bridge a cash crunch created by delays in closing a total company recapitalization.  Essex was contacted to generate a short term liquidity solution and responded with a $500,000 12 month bridge facility that alleviated the company's immediate cash needs.
 
Robert Swain, President of Essex Capital, commented, "Over the past 13 years that Essex has been raising capital, we have seen numerous situations where unforeseen delays in the process to complete a refinancing can cause financial stress on a company. With this bridge product, we've been able to develop a financing program that can alleviate almost any short term financial crisis. We were pleased to be able to step in and assist this company, solving their short term liquidity issue in only a week."
