Byline Financial Group (BFG) continues to make gains on the Monitor 100, an annual ranking of the largest equipment finance and leasing companies in the United States. BFG landed at number 80 of this year’s list, moving up from number 84 on last year’s list. Lyndon Thompson, BFG president, credits this success to the ability of his team to make decisions quickly—even in a volatile interest rate environment—and then convert those approved transactions into funded deals.
