What is Mezzanine Funding?

Mezzanine funding is a hybrid form of financing that is often used by business owners to fund acquisitions. Mezzanine funding is a form of cash flow financing and is often called leveraged financing. Mezzanine funding is more flexible than other forms of loans such as bank loans or asset based loans. Mezzanine funding has long maturity terms and low principal repayment, which gives a business owner ample time to grow their business and recover the cost of the loan.
