Benefits to Your Clients1
Your clients benefit from a financing solution that lets them sustain their financial discipline. A securities-based line of credit empowers them to stay on track with financial goals and retain control over assets pledged as collateral, while avoiding liquidating low-cost-basis securities.
Competitive rates: Offer rates that may be lower than other traditional lending solutions.
Tax-efficient solution2: Clients can avoid taxes on capital gains due to selling highly appreciated securities.
Streamlined approval process: Clients benefit from quick credit approval relative to other lending solutions.
Flexible, liquid option: Easy access to funding eliminates the need to draw down cash reserves. Clients can use the proceeds for a variety of purposes, with flexible terms.
Tech-driven loan management: Our easy-to-use technology lets your clients manage their loan facility however they choose.
Private Banking Solutions1
You and your clients often have financial needs that demand a highly responsive timeline. Beyond Securities-Based Lending, we can work with you to offer your high-net-worth clients a variety of private banking and financing capabilities to help you get business done quickly and efficiently.
-
Specialized mortgage services: An advantage of working with us is our partnership with our subsidiary, AmeriHome Mortgage, which can offer residential mortgages to complement Securities-Based Lending. Through our integrated business relationship, borrowers may have the opportunity to secure a securities-based line of credit and a mortgage from one bank, and for some, in one underwriting process.
-
Signature/unsecured lines of credit: Many of your high-net-worth investment clients value the flexibility and convenience of having signature/unsecured lines of credit for a variety of desired purposes. Our expert bankers can structure signature lines of credit with terms that meet your clients’ individualized needs and exacting standards.
-
Commercial banking: Your investment clients may own businesses structured as S-Corps, LLCs, family trusts and limited partnerships. Our significant business banking expertise lets us work with you to offer these clients a wide range of tailored lending solutions, such as commercial real estate loans and working capital lines of credit.
