Reliability ∙ Growth ∙ Innovation

We're more than just premium funding

These words have never been more true. As we always strive to offer innovating financing solutions, we’re pleased to announce the expansion of our range of services. As FIRST, here’s a look at what we’re offering you.

We’ve expanded our service offering to help meet your financial needs and to help you grow your business.

Cash flow lending: We now offer direct funding to assist you with business acquisitions, succession planning initiatives, and other investment opportunities. Attractive terms and interest rates are available.

Solutions for U.S.-based clients: Premium funding solutions for your U.S.-based clients are now available. We can help your clients grow their business, provide more payment options, and most importantly, provide a more streamlined approach to how you do business with us.

Quicker loan approvals: With a new home base in North America, we are in an excellent position to approve your larger, more complicated deals quickly and efficiently—which complements our existing pre-approved terms offering.

More competitive pricing: FIRST in the U.S. is wholly owned by Wintrust, a $16 billion financial holding company with significant deposit funds. As they are one of the major premium funding providers across the U.S., we can leverage these resources to offer your clients even more attractive rates.

This is only the beginning of things to come—and throughout the year, we’ll continue to roll out more services. In the meantime, talk to your local Relationship Manager for more details on these exciting new services.
