Venture capital with Half the Risk, a conversation with Ian Leisegang of 3Spoke Capital
<p>On this special dual episode of @AssetBacked and @ATLalts, I interviewed Ian Leisegang, CFA, of 3SPOKE, a provider of structured liquidity for the venture capital ecosystem.</p><p>3SPOKE is a private investment firm providing structured liquidity solutions to owners of late-stage venture assets.</p><p>Ian is the Co-Founder and Managing Partner of 3SPOKE and is responsible for all aspects of the management and strategic direction. Ian co-directs the firm’s investment process, leads the firm’s investor relationships, finance & operations, and co-directs the 3SPOKE Investment Committee.</p><p>3SPOKE invests in the next generation of visionary and disruptive global companies. These innovative companies continue to mature and grow larger and more valuable while remaining privately held, creating enormous pent-up demand for liquidity from their stakeholders. 3SPOKE addresses this need by providing structured liquidity solutions for this dynamic ecosystem.</p><p>3SPOKE provides shareholders, venture funds, and their investors with highly flexible capital, allowing them to continue to participate in future growth without locking in current market discounts, taxes, or a change in control.</p><p>3SPOKE offers investors risk-mitigated access to the most successful private companies, while taking growth rather than concept risk.</p><p>3SPOKE’s focus is to provide an alternative to the direct secondary sale of late-stage venture assets among employees at venture-backed firms, as well as across the entire portfolio of interests with limited and general partners. The common denominator for 3SPOKE is counterparties in need of liquidity who would prefer to leverage their strong assets and retain upside, rather than sell into the secondary market at potentially large discounts.</p><p>3Spoke Website/Bio<br>https://www.3spokecapital.com/</p><p>Ian Lesegang's LinkedIn Profile<br>linkedin.com/in/ian-leisegang-3spoke</p><p>Podcast Disclaimer</p><p>This podcast is produced and hosted by Andres Sandate, and is the property of Endurance Strategies, LLC.</p><p>Andres Sandate is a Financial Advisor with Gramercy Park Wealth Advisors, LLC, and a Registered Representative of GPWA, LLC, a member of FINRA / SIPC. </p><p>Andres Sandate is the Founder and CEO of EnduranceX.

Unlocking the Secrets of Specialty Finance with Coromandel Capital's Co-Founder and Managing Partner, Rob McGregor
<p>Launched in 2019, Coromandel Capital provides flexible, non-dilutive, growth-oriented asset-based lending solutions to specialty finance, fintech, and technology-enabled businesses with predictable, recurring revenue. One of a handful of non-bank lenders focusing on small-ticket debt capital solutions, Coromandel Capital and its peers, willing to do sub-$20 million financings, are critical players for capital-intensive specialty lenders. The firm's financings typically range between $5 million and $50 million, with a 3-year term. </p><p>Co-Founder and Managing Partner Rob McGregor and I discussed a variety of topics, including:</p><p>- How debt financing empowers startups and other early-stage and growing companies relative to venture capital financing</p><p>- The risks of double pledging assets (and explanations), which is timely given the recent collapse of First Brands' </p><p>- Using debt as a tool for business growth</p><p>- The hidden costs of venture debt</p><p>- The untapped potential of specialty finance</p><p>- The importance of monitoring in lending relationships</p><p>- Growing as a private lender while protecting and preserving capital</p><p>- Navigating the crowded and competitive private, non-bank lending industry to build lasting relationships with borrowers and investors</p><p><br>Some of the characteristics that Coromandel seeks out in ideal borrower partners are:</p><ul><li>Balance-sheet intensive businesses (i.e., those originating or acquiring an asset, whether tangible or intangible) that would otherwise finance these assets with equity. </li><li>Have equity raised from Seed to Series B (or similar stages in their lifecycle) that have adequate capitalization to support operational expenses and 'runway', and a portion of this equity can serve as a contribution (otherwise known as "haircut capital", "first loss capital", or "overcollateralization") for Coromandel's credit facility.</li><li>Subject matter experts and/or executives blazing their own trail with deep roots in an industry, a solid track record, and a proven business model.</li><li>Companies participating in sizable markets and doing so in a differentiated manner at attractive customer acquisition costs, as well as firms that may have found an untapped, "greenfield" opportunity to address an underserved (or even unserved) market.</li></ul>
