Our Company – Nexseer Capital

From Complexity to Clarity

Nexseer Capital is a specialty commercial finance firm dedicated to solving our clients’ most complex asset finance challenges. Since 1999, we’ve employed our deal-structuring and project management expertise to provide supplemental liquidity for equipment and project financing. Over the years, we’ve seen our company evolve into a well-capitalized, independent institution with deep lending capabilities built upon the same core deal-structuring expertise.

Nexseer was acquired in 2016 by Atalaya Capital Management, LP via one of its private equity investment funds. Atalaya is a privately held, SEC-registered alternative investment advisory firm primarily focused on making asset-based private credit and special opportunities investments across three principal asset classes – specialty finance, real estate, and corporate. Founded in 2006, Atalaya is headquartered in New York City and has more than $8 billion in assets under management.

In 2022, the management team of Nexseer acquired majority control of the company, as Nexseer moves forward as a well-capitalized independent equipment finance company with a minority investment from Atalaya Capital Management funds.
