Maus Coex Capital Champions Alternative Financing as a Strategic Tool for Business Growth
VANCOUVER, B.C. – As traditional lending tightens and businesses face increasing barriers to bank financing, Maus Coex Capital is empowering entrepreneurs with a comprehensive approach to alternative financing solutions.
With the global non-bank lending market expected to double to $3 trillion by 2028, Maus Coex is positioning itself at the forefront of a seismic shift in commercial finance.
'Alternative financing isn't just about filling a funding gap—it's about strategic capital acquisition,' said Rohan Ellis, Senior Partner at Maus Coex Capital.
'We provide clients with tailored access to non-traditional sources such as private equity, peer-to-peer lending, SBLCS, and crowdfunding to meet their operational, developmental, and innovation goals.'
A Changing Financial Landscape
Traditional bank loans still dominate the lending space but often fall short for startups, businesses in niche industries, or those with limited credit history. Maus Coex Capital identifies this pain point and offers advisory services for business owners seeking agile, innovative alternatives.
As Ellis explained, 'The capital markets have evolved. There is no one-size-fits-all. We help our clients navigate a dynamic funding landscape with options that reflect modern business models.'
From government grants and private credit to venture debt and strategic joint ventures, Maus Coex Capital's model is grounded in assessing client needs and matching them with appropriate financing mechanisms.
Why Alternative Financing Matters in 2025
Maus Coex Capital underscores the multiple reasons businesses should consider alternative financing: Faster approvals and lower documentation burdens
Flexible repayment terms suited to irregular cash flows
Access to industry-specific grants or innovation incentives
Exposure to global investor networks through crowdfunding
Capital injections without traditional collateral requirements
These options have become particularly attractive in sectors like technology, biotech, manufacturing, and renewable energy, where long gestation periods and capital-intensive R&D can disqualify businesses from traditional loans.
Client Success Story: Pivot Tech Innovations
Due to its limited operational history, Vancouver-based Pivot Tech Innovations, a cleantech startup, struggled to secure capital through banks. Maus Coex Capital designed a hybrid solution involving angel investment, an R&D grant, and a convertible note from a private equity partner.
'With Maus Coex's guidance, we raised over $1.8 million in just six months,' said Carla Nguyen, CEO of Pivot Tech. 'Their understanding of private equity structures and the innovation funding ecosystem made all the difference.'
What Types of Financing Are Available?
Maus Coex Capital helps businesses assess and access a wide range of alternative financing solutions:
1. Government Grants and Subsidies
Targeted at innovation, exports, or sustainability goals, these funds are often underutilized due to complex application processes. Maus Coex advisors assist in preparing compelling submissions.
2. Venture Capital & Angel Investment
Equity-based solutions are suited to early-stage companies. Maus Coex connects clients to a vetted investor network interested in high-growth verticals.
3. Private Equity
Focused on mature businesses with scalable potential, Maus Coex structures deals that include management buyouts, recapitalizations, and strategic growth investments.
4. Peer-to-Peer Lending
Ideal for SMES needing working capital without the bureaucracy of traditional banks. Maus Coex screens platforms to find those with favourable borrower terms.
5. Crowdfunding
Beyond product exposure, crowdfunding platforms provide quick capital while building customer loyalty. Maus Coex offers support with marketing and campaign execution.
6. Standby Letters of Credit (SBLCS)
For companies involved in global trade, Maus Coex facilitates the issuance of SBLCS to secure supplier relationships and guarantee payments, strengthening client credibility in competitive markets.
7. Revenue-Based Financing
Used by e-commerce and SaaS firms, this model allows repayments based on a percentage of future revenues. Maus Coex assists in negotiating investor-friendly terms.
8. Invoice and Factoring Solutions
Turn outstanding invoices into cash flow. Maus Coex helps assess whether invoice discounting or factoring better suits the business's needs.
Case Study: BlueHarvest Exports and SBLCS
BlueHarvest Exports, a B.C.-based seafood exporter, was losing international contracts due to a lack of payment guarantees. Maus Coex Capital stepped in to arrange a €2 million SBLC facility through its banking partners in the EU.
'The SBLC gave us the credibility we needed in the European market,' said Antonio Perez, CFO of BlueHarvest. 'It opened doors to new distributors who previously wouldn't work with us.'
Risk Management with Alternative Financing
While the benefits are clear, Maus Coex Capital ensures its clients understand the risks: Higher costs due to private sourcing of capital
Potential equity dilution
Customized and complex terms
Governance involvement from investors in some structures
'Every funding method comes with trade-offs,' said Ellis. 'Our role is to analyze these risks, prepare strong financial packages, and negotiate the most favourable terms for our clients.'
Helping Clients Prepare to Succeed
Financing is more than an application—it's a strategy. Maus Coex Capital offers a holistic suite of services: Financial modelling and pro forma analysis
Business plan and pitch deck development
Financier targeting and term sheet negotiation

'The funding solutions that work in North America might not be optimal in Asia-Pacific,' said Director of Global Strategy Ingrid Malek. 'Our global footprint ensures clients receive regionally relevant support.'
Client Case Study: Lumen Health, UAE
Lumen Health, a digital health platform based in Dubai, sought funding to develop AI-driven patient care tools. Maus Coex arranged a blended finance structure combining: A UAE government innovation grant
A convertible note from a UK-based healthtech angel group
Peer-to-peer debt from a Sharia-compliant lending platform
Within four months, Lumen Health raised AED 7.5 million. CEO Farah Al-Din credited Maus Coex for 'orchestrating a capital strategy that was as innovative as our product.'
