About Us

Established in 1975, Connell Finance Company, Inc. (Connell Finance) and its affiliates have been active in virtually all aspects of the asset-based finance, equipment leasing, project finance, and real estate financing markets for more than thirty five years. Connell Finance has focused its efforts in the following areas: (1) as an equity owner in leveraged and single investor leases of real estate and large ticket capital equipment such as locomotives, airplanes, railcars and power plants, (2) syndication/placement to other investors, in connection with transactions in which Connell both participates in as well as manages, and (3) advisory or arranger to other investors, in connection with transactions in which Connell manages but does not participate.  

Since the 1970’s, Connell has been acquiring physical assets that can generate current income while at the same time providing inflation protection and upside for future generations.  From its inception, Connell Finance has arranged and/or participated in over $9 billion of asset-based financings, of which approximately $700 million Connell has participated in directly as an owner participant. Many of the assets acquired by Connell through Connell Finance's business activities continue to produce current cash flow, and Connell anticipates future generational, “inflation-protected” cash flow from these assets.
