About Us

Alter Moneta is one of North America’s fastest-growing independent financial services companies—with significant market presence on both sides of the United States and Canadian border.  We provide funds to purchase or lease a wide variety of new and used revenue-producing equipment for middle-market businesses in the trucking and warehousing, construction, passenger transport, manufacturing, and waste management sectors.  Through our Vendor Finance Group, we also provide North American equipment manufacturers and dealers a source of end-user financing and leasing along with fleet rental financing opportunities.   Our Lutex subsidiary in Quebec focuses on the Canadian auto leasing sector, rounding out our North American financial platform.  

Alter Moneta’s majority shareholder is Bear Stearns Merchant Banking (BSMB), a leading United States private equity firm.  Accompanying Bear Stearns is Caisse de depot et placement du Quebec (Caisse), the largest institutional fund manager in Canada and one of Quebec’s leading financial institutions.  The backing of these two institutions provides Alter Moneta with the capacity to service clients as well as our clients’ customer base.
