ATEL Capital Group

ATEL Capital Group is an alternative investment sponsor that owns and manages a diversified portfolio spanning equipment leasing, venture debt, and real estate. Through its leasing platform, the firm finances essential low-technology manufacturing, construction, transportation, and related capital equipment leased primarily to established corporate credits, positioning investors to participate in cash flows from durable, need-based assets.

Alongside equipment leasing, ATEL provides growth-oriented venture lending to high-growth companies across stages and sectors, offering debt capital that can support expansion without equity dilution. The firm also holds commercial and residential real estate investments intended to balance income stability with longer-term return potential.

Founded in 1977 and headquartered in San Francisco, ATEL has financed more than one thousand businesses globally over several decades. Its multi-strategy platform is designed for investors seeking alternative exposure tied to equipment finance, private credit to growth companies, and property investments.
