Signature Resources Capital Management

The firm focuses on asset-based and collateral-intensive private credit. This includes loans secured by equipment, real estate, receivables, and other tangible assets — a segment distinct from cash-flow or enterprise-value lending. The strategy emphasizes downside protection through hard-asset coverage rather than covenant-lite borrower relationships.

The firm originates loans directly, bypassing the broadly syndicated market and sponsor-intermediated channels that dominate larger private credit. Sourcing relies on relationships with asset owners, specialty-finance platforms, and restructuring advisors. This origination model competes with regional banks that historically served collateral-based borrowers.

Sector exposure spans equipment finance, commercial real estate bridge lending, and specialty-finance receivables. The geographic mandate concentrates on the United States, with limited Canadian exposure where cross-border enforceability of collateral is robust. The firm does not target emerging-market or unsecured consumer credit.

The firm avoids covenant-lite, EBITDA-addback-dependent underwriting common in broadly syndicated loans. Instead, it underwrites to asset-cover ratios — the liquidation value of pledged collateral relative to the loan balance. This approach requires in-house asset-valuation expertise and produces loans that are generally not marked to market daily.
