DealCatalyst's ABF 2025
Asset Based Finance: The Intersection of Specialty Finance, Fintech, and Private Credit
The ABF market is poised to reach a staggering USD $20 trillion in the next decade. Several factors are driving this growth. Firstly, banks are withdrawing from the market, creating a vacuum that private investors are eager to fill. Secondly, the diversity of assets being financed has expanded significantly, including traditional financial assets, securitized consumer and commercial loans, and emerging esoteric assets such as litigation funding, home equity products, digital infrastructure, and sports finance. Thirdly, insurance capital has shown a growing appetite for this asset class, further fueling its expansion.
The program will showcase the full range of assets being financed, from conventional financial instruments to innovative structures that enable their financing. The scope of assets financed and the innovative structures employed to support them are demonstrating the profound impact of private credit on the ABF market.
Barry Bobrow, Managing Director-Head of Credit Markets, Regions Business Capital, and SFNet past president, will be speaking at the event on Sept. 25, on a panel entitled Private Credit Meets ABL: Scale and Flexibility Chart a New Course in Equipment.
