Great Elm Commercial Finance (GECF) is a national asset-based lender specializing in secured financing solutions for small and medium-sized businesses. Formerly Sterling Commercial Credit, our rebrand reflects significant growth, a broader product offering, and a renewed focus on serving an expanded range of industries—including manufacturing, distribution, and healthcare.
Headquartered in Nashville, with offices in Detroit, Chicago, and Washington, D.C., Great Elm CF provides flexible capital solutions designed to meet the complex needs of growing companies. Our lending structures include asset-based revolving lines, secured term loans, and unitranche facilities, with commitments ranging from $2 million to $30 million. Loans are secured by receivables, inventory, equipment, and real estate, and customized to fit each client’s capital requirements.
What sets Great Elm CF apart is our relationship-first approach and deep understanding of our clients’ businesses. We move with urgency, creativity, and clarity—delivering financing when traditional lenders fall short. Our experienced team navigates credit cycles and complex opportunities with confidence, helping businesses unlock working capital and achieve sustainable growth.
We work closely with founders, private equity sponsors, and financial advisors to structure solutions that support strategic goals—from turnarounds and recapitalizations to growth and acquisitions.
