Hercules Technology Growth Capital: Make High-Growth Tech Stocks Pay Dividends

Impossible to obtain venture debt through banks?? Here are banks offering venture debt: SquareOne, Comerica, SVB through their affiliate Gold Hill. But it is not just banks that are putting pressure on HTGC loan officers to put offers out quickly with thin pricing. Western Technology, MMV, Leader Ventures, Costella Kirsch, even GE's finance group are all fighting each and watering down terms in the process, and this does not even account for the venture leasing players. Interest only for a year? No problem. Don't forget subprime mortgage; you mean don't forget Comdisco. Never invest in a capital at risk business run by a salesman.
