Seabury Group (“Seabury”), a leading global advisory and professional services firm, and Equipment Finance Group (“EFG”), a provider of captive finance supplier-based machinery finance and trade finance, announced the formation of Seabury Equipment Finance Group LLC (“SEFG”). This new company will provide manufacturers across a broad range of industries with market leading supplier-based finance solutions.

SEFG will provide multinational manufacturers with export finance products absent in traditional markets, ensuring that they have access to a range of services and expertise specifically tailored to increase their competitiveness across the global markets. Seabury, with its headquarters in New York and professionals based in 14 countries on five continents and clients in over 50 countries, is a leading global advisory, software and capital markets/asset management group with clients in Aviation, Aerospace & Defense, Government, Financial Exchanges and Financial Services, Insurance, IT/Software, Travel, Transportation and related industries.

“While equipment buyers often look to their suppliers to provide financial solutions, few equipment builders have the expertise or capital to provide extensive credit terms to their customers, especially when dealing in numerous regions and countries,” said Seabury Asset Management Chief Executive Officer and Global Head of Specialists Funds and Financial Solutions, Margaret L. Chan. “We aim to provide affordable, innovative payment solutions to buyers regardless of their geographic location while offering OEMs efficient cross-border funding sources.”

Christopher Lyle, SEFG’s President & CEO, and Justin P. Goheen, SEFG’s Chief Operating Officer, with a combined 45 years of equipment finance and structured trade finance experience, will be backed by Seabury’s capital markets expertise. “Seabury’s global platform allows us to not only compete in the global trade market, but to pioneer new financing structures,” said Christopher Lyle. “SEFG will become a powerful influence providing buyers with unique, supplier-based finance programs. We will enable our manufacturing partners to offer aggressive, borderless finance solution to their buyers.”
