Government Receivables
Legalist’s government receivables strategy invests in high-quality local, state, and federal receivables and other government assets.
Legalist’s flagship government receivables strategy provides financing secured by local, state, and federal government contracts, grants, tax credits, rebates, and other receivables. We invest on a senior secured basis against government assets to help fund small business growth.
Financing from Legalist allows companies to monetize their local, state, and federal government assets for payroll and growth. Our funds invest across industries, providing capital to companies sourced using our proprietary investment technology.
