Most people get their money looked at one piece at a time. Deryan Financial Group and Smith & Co Planning look at the whole picture together, finance and wealth side by side, so nothing important gets missed.
We removed the hand-offs. NovaCap brings the capital and the conviction; DFG Finance brings the structuring rigor and the rails. You bring the deal — and walk away with a signed term sheet before the market shifts.
NovaCap and DFG Finance underwrite, structure and fund middle-market deals in days — not quarters. One desk, two balance sheets, zero friction.
The people behind the partnership
Head of Originations
Maya has underwritten more than $300M across real estate, logistics and specialty finance over fifteen years on the principal side. She built NovaCap’s originations desk around one idea: conviction beats committee, and the right deal deserves an answer in days — not quarters.
Head of Originations
Jonah structures the facilities that make capital land clean — senior, mezzanine and unitranche, with the covenants and rails to match. After a decade in structured credit across 40+ markets, he runs DFG’s credit desk, engineering each deal around your cash flows so the close is the easy part.
Discretionary balance-sheet capital from $500K to $25M. We commit fast, hold through cycles, and price risk on the merits — not the checklist.
