iCap Ventures is leading the way domestically and internationally in creative finance solutions for this emerging 21st century new world of finance.

In this post-credit crunch world - iCap Ventures and their Strategic Affiliated Partners, through creative deal structuring and proven Investment Banking solutions, have developed a number of very unique and proprietary structured finance investment banking solutions. 

Our structures and systems, provide investors and issuers with unique solutions for guaranteed returns and positive IRR, no risk of principal, no collateral and interest only loans. 

We structure and implement investment opportunities, finance and capitalization plans that take the risk out of speculative investments and give issuers the highest possible opportunity of achieving their capitalization goals and succeeding in their business goals and objectives.

Similar to a Business Development Company ("Public BDC"),  iCap Ventures is a "Private" Business Development Enterprise ("BDE").  A company created primarily to fund and grow qualified small & medium size enterprises (SME's) in the initial stages of their development, as well as properly capitalize seasoned and/or emerging growth companies.

Our BDE provides permanent capital to management, and takes an Affiliate Equity position along with a Board seat in each company/venture funded.  We maintain a close working relationship and assist as needed in the success of each project/venture/company.

The firm maintains a close working relationship with a number of Strategic Associates (domestic & international) in: the Investment Banking Industry, the insurance industry, as well as legal council in order to provide clients with the best results possible. 

Note:  Both present and past clients of the firm may need or want to preserve confidentiality, regarding both the client company involvement in a particular project or venture, as well as the fact that structured financing was used.  Accordingly, we follow a strict policy of confidentiality.  While clients sometimes choose to disclose or even document our firm’s work in structured finance for procurement of capitalization, our policy is to leave that choice to each client’s independent discretion.

In accordance with iCap Ventures practices and policies, our firm can disclose objective and factual descriptions of the professional work done or in process, but not contact information of the key principal, or other access to client companies.  However, we realize prospective clients have a need to validate our work and structured finance process, therefore, we provide validation through our legal council, only for clients who have made application with us for a qualified project or venture. As our process and methods as well as sources of capital and securitization are proprietary, we cannot provide specific details, even to clients, concerning the construction of our structures nor our sources..
