Capteris President, Eric Dusch, said: “The equipment finance industry has been very competitive over the last several years given high demand, low losses, and favorable rate environment. Given current economic pressures, both companies and lessors are facing market challenges for the first time in many years. We see this as a tremendous time to enter the market given our unique positioning as an independent financial institution with the ability and appetite to serve a broad spectrum of industries, collateral types, and credit profiles.” 

Capteris' leadership expertise will be able to serve a wide array of industry needs and asset types with the ability to tailor client solutions to meet a variety of financial, strategic, and competitive goals, according to the announcement.

“With Capteris, we have the opportunity to better serve our existing client base while at the same time expanding into new markets," Wheels Donlen’s CEO, Shlomo Crandus added. "We are excited to launch this business and believe the collaboration among Wheels Donlen, MidCap, and Capteris will be a true differentiator in the market.”
