Moments ago we unveiled Capital Markets to the world—the first venture debt marketplace for Silicon Valley. Through Arc, startups can apply for everything from Venture Debt to ABLs from the world’s leading lenders in minutes and receive indicative terms at no cost. We’re so confident in our network of lenders, that qualified startups who apply but don’t receive indicative terms will receive $10,000 in their Arc account*. That’s what we call a win-win. 🤝 Links: 👉 Apply for funding: https://lnkd.in/gAgtuj-2 👉 Learn more: https://lnkd.in/g8MRxD86 * Conditions apply. Indicative terms are not a binding offer. See full terms at https://lnkd.in/gc23iJAv.

Venture debt is a common theme in nearly every conversation I’m having with founders, venture firms and other ecosystem partners. Yes, SVB remains the leader in venture debt. Yes, SVB still provides startups with access to capital, and our credit appetite and ability to extend credit has not changed. And yes, SVB will work tirelessly to help you solve challenges and achieve success. Check out my new blog on how we advise companies to think about financing options that allow them to continue their important work. https://lnkd.in/guSXSyei

Great article from Dax Williamson outlining best practices for venture debt in terms of when to secure it, what companies are a good fit, how much leverage to take on, when to use, and what to use it for. https://lnkd.in/gzT6mbC5

A great article written by Dax Williamson that provides a realistic & thoughtful summary of how founders should be thinking about venture debt in the current macroeconomic environment. Having a non-dilutive tool such as venture debt available can potentially help founders prevent unnecessary equity dilution, especially in times like these where there are factors related to fundraising that are outside of management control. Make sure you're working with a partner who takes the time to understand you & your business's needs, is someone both you and your investors trust, and that will be patient as things inevitably change and your business needs to adapt. https://lnkd.in/gB6QjQfd

Brilliant article from my SVB colleague Dax Williamson on venture debt, how it works, what to think about, and how we approach it. Having been the pioneer in venture debt 40-years ago, we've seen the cycles and know a thing or two. Yes, SVB.

In the challenging landscape of #startupfundraising, exploring alternatives becomes crucial. It might be time to consider venture debt as a viable solution. It serves distinct purposes, such as financing equipment acquisitions, extending the runway between equity funding rounds, and effectively managing cash flow. A key advantage is that venture debt preserves founders' ownership and control, all while recognizing #SVB as a leading authority in this strategy. To all my founders, check out Dax Williamson's blog for more details.

With venture debt funds shying away from subscribing to equity warrants at high valuations, most start-ups are closing out pure-debt deals at high coupon rates. “Start-ups are taking on debt at higher than the usual 14-15.5%. Interest rates on these can go as high as 18-20%,”said an investor. The number of deals, with an equity upside, has fallen sharply. Compared with 38 deals in 2022 and 49, the year before, Tracxn data shows that startups have closed out only 17 venture debt deals this year so far.
