When the Key Specialty Finance Lending group began the relationship with Access Point Financial (APF), they spent significant time with us getting to know our firm, the nature of our business, our loan portfolio and the industry within which we operate. The group dedicated tremendous effort to this overall due diligence process, asking excellent questions and providing APF with invaluable feedback along the way. APF management believes Key has a solid grasp of our business model and has also demonstrated a high level of responsiveness to dialog regarding our financing initiatives and helping us with the growth of our platform. We highly value Key as a current (and future) lending partner, critical to APF's continued growth and success.
