Tygris sets a record with $2 billion raised

Back in May, there was word that a new commercial finance company called Tygris Commercial Finance Group was going to set a record with a $1.75 billion capital raise.

This morning, I received an email from a PR firm and then saw the press release. On June 6, Tygris closed with more than a $2 billion raise, setting an even higher record than expected.

Tygris is a commercial finance company that provides liquidity and growth capital to middle market companies throughout North America. Tygris has three commercial finance businesses: corporate finance, equipment leasing and asset finance, and small ticket leasing. Tygris has offices in Chicago, Stamford, CT and Parsippany, NJ.
