TORONTO, Oct. 21, 2020 /CNW/ - Simplifying access to
capital for small and medium businesses across the U.S. and
Canada is the foundation of the
new Accord Financial Corp. brand ("Accord") (TSX: ACD) that
launches today. Accord, one of North
America's leading independent finance companies, is
introducing a streamlined organizational structure bringing all
commercial lending businesses under the Accord umbrella brand, with
systems that seamlessly integrate both clients and financial
partners resulting in fast and flexible financing.
"We've spent the last two years defining our brand foundation,
combining the most valuable elements of our 40-year history with a
new forward-looking spirit and ambition," stated Simon Hitzig, President, Accord Financial. "The
changes we've made – to our mission, vision, financing solutions,
technology, organizational structure, and senior team – have raised
the bar and will ensure that Accord thrives for the next 40
years."
In an effort to provide financing that addresses a broad range
of client needs and opportunities with the ability to support
clients through the various stages of each company's lifecycle,
Accord now offers an expanded solution set, including receivables,
equipment and inventory financing, small business term loans, and
BCAP loans (in Canada). The
executive leadership team, as well as the board, is both deep and
diverse, furthering Accord's strategy of game-changing integration
with referral networks, clients and investors.
Also part of the brand evolution is a new brand image and a
redesigned website offering simple navigation to solutions and
people. "Our redesigned logo and visual system capture the new
spirit of Accord," said Barrett
Carlson, Accord's Senior Vice President, Corporate
Development. "Most importantly, the new website will help connect
companies in need with the right funding at the right time."
