Bridging Finance is a privately held Canadian company providing middle-market North American companies with alternatives to the financing options offered by traditional lenders. Lending proceeds, typically ranging from $3,000,000 to upwards of $50,000,000, are used by companies to address short-term needs such as restructuring existing debt, providing working capital for growth, supporting inventory purchases and financing expenditures and acquisitions/buyouts.

Bridging Finance is the co-manager to the Sprott Bridging Income Fund LP and the Sprott Bridging RSP Fund. The Fund invests in factoring/private debt loans that have a low correlation to traditional asset classes. This asset class has traditionally been difficult for individual investors to access. Bridging Finance also offers portfolio management services for institutional clients. Bridging Finance manages approximately $600 million of assets.
