Kyle Shenfeld, CEO of Rainbow Realty Group, spoke at the Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference at the ‘Debt Financing: The Industry's White Knight in 2023’ panel.
When the legalized cannabis industry first blew up, there was an abundance of lenders that were eager to finance emerging cannabis companies; however, the last 18 months have witnessed a decrease in lenders.
Shenfeld shares that the decrease in lenders during an increase in state legalization is creating a heightened demand for debt financing. Debt financing these days is more thoughtful with increased due diligence than it was at the start of the cannabis burst.
