51% of business owners consider their business to be in a growth stage.

… but banks don’t invest in large-scale, accelerated growth that they define as high-risk.

Point North invests in your business when the banks won’t. We assess your growth options, jumpstart cultural change, and provide capital for people, process, technologies, and facilities.

As stakeholders in your company, Point North is committed to your success. We bridge the financial gap when:

  • You need to restructure capital for growth.

  • You need a stronger balance sheet to compete at the next level.

  • You need to buy out a shareholder without slowing growth.

  • You need to transfer your business and create wealth at the same time.
