OY6 Capital

OY6 Capital

OY6 Capital launched in 2021, founded by President Adam Bednar and Capital Markets Leader Will. Both principals spent years at Nexseer Capital: Bednar in sales and operational leadership roles across energy, manufacturing, and private equity sponsor verticals; Will as Vice President and Capital Markets Manager following earlier tenures as Chief Credit Officer at Crossroads Equipment Lease and Finance and at Pitney Bowes Bank. The firm's founding thesis marries deep commercial lending experience with a military ethos — a commitment to underwrite and fund as a reliable partner across all phases of the business cycle. OY6 originates and structures commercial loans and leases that often fall outside the box of conventional bank lending. The firm covers traditional equipment finance, 100% soft-cost financing, and progressive futures-based funding structures designed to generate consistent returns for operating businesses. Its deal experience spans manufacturing floors, job sites, server rooms, operating rooms, and boardrooms, with an aggregate transaction volume exceeding $1.5 billion across a broad range of industries (per firm website). Deployment is US-focused from the Irvine headquarters, with a Dallas-area phone presence and nationwide borrower reach. OY6 Capital holds a Certified Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) designation, a status that also serves as an institutional gateway: municipal debt issuers, public pension funds, and other regulated entities can allocate to OY6 to help fulfill Veteran, DVBE, SDVOSB, and MBE contracting goals. Bednar remains active in veteran mental-health charities. The firm was founded in 2021 — though the co-founders collectively bring over 45 years of platform deal experience — and does not publicly disclose assets under management or headcount beyond its two named principals. OY6's structural differentiator is its status as an SDVOSB direct lender: it occupies the intersection of a regulated California finance lender (License 60DBO-131034) and a veteran-owned contractor eligible for mandatory allocation carve-outs in public and institutional mandates. This dual identity shapes a capital-markets profile that is rare among private credit vehicles — mission-driven origination tethered to a formal regulatory and supplier-diversity framework.
