[Red Lodge, MT, November 1, 2023] – UFS, Unsecured Funding Source, a FinTech lender that has facilitated over $500MM in business and franchise purchase loans since 2009, is thrilled to announce the official launch of the Jumpstart Loan Fund. This innovative fund offers Franchisors and other accredited investors a unique opportunity to be part of a private credit fund, with a specific focus on lending to well-qualified franchisees for the purpose of acquiring stable, growing franchises.

The $10MM Jumpstart Loan Fund provides Franchisors an opportunity to “become a lender without becoming a bank” via the rapidly growing private credit market, now the third largest asset class in private markets, with assets under management set to exceed $1.5 trillion by 2025. By participating in this fund, Franchisors and other accredited investors can enjoy a range of benefits, including high yields, consistent annual distributions and the ability to play a crucial role in re-investing money back into the franchise industry as a whole, while supporting entrepreneurs in their pursuit of franchise ownership.

At the heart of the Jumpstart Loan Fund mission lies the entrepreneurial spirit. UFS, the fund manager, is passionate about fostering the growth and success of highly-qualified entrepreneurs who aspire to purchase franchises or businesses with proven track records. To achieve this goal, UFS is partnered with FDIC-regulated chartered banks, ensuring that its loans (typically from $50k to $250k) adhere to rigorous underwriting and regulatory standards, while promoting economic development and entrepreneurship.

“We firmly believe in the power of entrepreneurship to drive economic growth and create opportunities for both investors and business owners,” said Grant Ferguson, CEO of UFS, the Jumpstart Loan Fund manager. “The Jumpstart Loan Fund allows us to empower highly-qualified franchisees while offering our investors a path to stable, consistent returns.”
