Capital Advisors Group, Inc. has launched Lenteris Advisors, a dedicated division specialising in debt placement advisory services for emerging-growth and lower middle-market companies. The Boston-based team is led by Stefan Spazek, Executive Vice President and Division Head, alongside Jeff Griffor, Managing Director; Zachary Miller, Managing Director; and Jack Newman, Analyst.
Lenteris Advisors works on debt transactions across life sciences, technology and other high-growth sectors, ranging from $10 million to more than $300 million. Its product coverage includes venture debt, unitranche financing, equipment leasing, asset-based lending, recurring revenue lines and subordinated debt.
Capital Advisors Group said Lenteris Advisors expands its existing debt advisory service under a new brand. Its debt advisory team has advised CFOs, treasury teams and founders on debt capital raises for more than 23 years. Lenteris Advisors describes itself as independent, with no affiliation with lending institutions, and draws on a proprietary database of transactions spanning more than two decades.
"Our new Lenteris Advisors brand serves a debt financing market that has not only grown significantly more crowded, but also fragmented as lenders have become more specialized," Spazek said. Lenteris Advisors provides debt finance consulting services and is not part of Capital Advisors Group's investment advisory business.
