Recently’s market is saturated with capital equipment investment dollars from lenders that may not have expertise in the specific sectors in which they’re lending. And while the access to capital is a boon from a low interest rate perspective, the lack of industry expertise and understanding of a business can result in onerous lending terms when the market retreats. These are some of the observations presented by Eric Miller, Group Head and Managing Director of CIT Capital Equipment Finance, a division of CIT Group Inc. (CIT), a leading provider of commercial lending and leasing services, in “Capital Equipment Finance: The Lifeblood of Growth,” (www.cit.com/miller) the latest piece of market intelligence in the CIT Executive Insights video series.
“Due to recently’s positive market conditions, a wide variety of lenders can offer low rates without necessarily offering deep experience lending within a business’ particular industry,” said Miller. “This lack of expertise can cause friction when a sector goes through a natural cycle. A lender may try to impose harsh terms, underscoring a lack of knowledge about the industry and the business’ ability to operate in a natural downturn, which ultimately put the business at risk.”
