Every fintech founder knows they have to raise equity. Often overlooked is the true fuel of a lending business: debt. The wrong debt deal can cost millions of dollars, compromise profitability, and thwart growth.
On today's episode, Shawn receives a primer on debt deals from Rich Davis, co-chair of the asset-based lending practice at Paul Hastings, and Mike Armstrong, co-founder of Ensemblex. They discuss deal terms to watch out for, deal sizes and different providers, and the state of the market.
Lenders and non-lenders alike will also benefit from Paul and Mike's perspective on leadership (stop telling people what to do), tenacity (you mostly survive suffering), and managing business relationships (speak up when it gets sour.)
