BY&S Expands into Traditional ABL Due Diligence


BY&S has made a significant move by expanding into Traditional Asset Based Lending due diligence.  This new initiative reflects our commitment to leveraging our experience, expertise, and dedication in the Healthcare Lending environment and applying it to the broader ABL sector. 

The team will be spearheaded by Randy Laughner, who brings valuable knowledge and leadership to the group, along with Dennis Koga and Benjamin Roche, both of whom add depth and expertise to the new venture.  This expansion aims to enhance our service offerings and provide comprehensive due diligence support to clients in the Traditional ABL market.  Anthony Hope, Partner, and Jennifer Reid, Managing Director, will be collaborating with Randy to oversee the newly established team.  Their combined expertise and leadership will be instrumental in ensuring that the team operates effectively and meets the high standards expected by clients.

Randy’s extensive experience and recognized leadership not only enhance the team’s capabilities but also provide a solid foundation as we start this new vertical.
