DealCatalyst and the Equipment Leasing and Finance Association (ELFA) formed a strategic partnership that will offer ELFA members exclusive access to the premier private credit conference Asset Based Finance (ABF) 2025, taking place Sept. 25 – 26 in New York. Now in its fourth year, ABF 2025 features an enhanced focus on commercial asset finance, including equipment leases and loans, aircraft, and transportation.

“This partnership with DealCatalyst represents a significant opportunity for our members to engage with the broader private credit community and explore new avenues for growth,” Leigh Lytle, president and CEO of ELFA, said. “By bringing together leaders in asset-based finance, this conference will not only deliver cutting-edge insights but also facilitate partnerships that drive innovation and success in the equipment finance sector.”

“Equipment Finance is a key pillar in the Asset-Based Finance space,” Jade Friedensohn, CEO of DealCatalyst, said. “This event complements the impact of the former New York Investor Conference by providing a platform for borrowers to meet new funding partners, and for investors to diversify beyond corporate and consumer credit. Our partnership with ELFA will resurrect this opportunity while delivering highly relevant educational content for its members on the private credit space.”
