Wintrust Commercial Finance

Wintrust Commercial Finance is the equipment focused financing group of Wintrust. It offers loan and lease products to companies throughout the United States, providing capital solutions across many industries. Aviation is one of the asset types it finances.

The group finances transportation assets such as trucks, trailers, rail and intermodal equipment, along with aviation and maritime assets. It also covers construction and manufacturing equipment, technology, medical and healthcare equipment, energy, mining and materials, food processing, and waste and recycling.

The website lists the structures it will consider. These include structured financing and loans, sale and leaseback, lease discounting, financing for new and used equipment, capital expenditure financing with fixed or floating rates, refinancing and estate planning, acquisitions, and capital, operating, synthetic and TRAC leases.

Contract based financing and turn key project finance, including real estate, are also available. Representative transactions on the site range from about 24.3 million to 33.2 million dollars. Examples include a term loan for a 204,000 barrel capacity barge, a term loan for a plastics manufacturer and a sale leaseback of a construction equipment fleet.

The website says the group is led by an experienced management team with, on average, 25 years of experience. The team includes a president and chief executive, a chief commercial officer, a chief credit officer and regional vice presidents for the West, Central and East regions.

Clients can connect with an expert through the site's contact form. The form asks about the amount of the loan, its purpose, how long the business has been trading, annual revenue and industry.
