News & Views Northland Capital Recognized in the 2026 Monitor 100 August 31, 2026 Northland Capital has once again been recognized in the Monitor 100, the equipment finance industry’s annual ranking of the nation’s largest equipment finance companies. This year’s report highlighted a challenging environment for independent finance companies, with tariff-related uncertainty, increased competition, and pressure on new business volume shaping much of the market. Consistency Matters in a Growing Industry Northland Capital maintained its #63 ranking in New Business Volume for the second consecutive year. While the ranking remained unchanged, the industry itself continued to grow. The Top 100 grew from $205 billion to $211.9 billion in new business volume. Holding our position in a larger, more competitive market demonstrates the consistency and focus that continues to drive Northland forward. Stability Creates Opportunity The 2026 Monitor 100 represents $593.8 billion in net assets, up from more than $568 billion last year. As the equipment finance industry evolves, Northland continues to compete at a high level while remaining focused on long-term, sustainable growth. For customers and partners, that stability means working with a financing partner positioned to support their needs today and into the future. Relationships Remain the Priority Industry recognition is meaningful, but the relationships behind the numbers matter most. While rankings measure growth and scale, Northland’s approach remains the same: understanding the businesses behind the equipment, providing flexible financing solutions, and building partnerships that last. “Maintaining our position in the Monitor 100 reflects the dedication of our team and the trust our customers and partners place in us every day, and we’re grateful for the opportunity to support their continued growth,” said Willis Kleinjan, CEO of Northland Capital. Focused on What’s Next Looking ahead, many equipment finance companies are prioritizing AI adoption, process automation, and operational efficiency as they position themselves for future growth. As technology continues to reshape the industry, Northland Capital remains focused on leveraging these advancements to enhance the customer experience, improve efficiency, and better serve customers, vendors, and partners. “While the industry continues to evolve, our focus remains the same: delivering flexible financing solutions and helping businesses succeed,” Kleinjan said. By continuing to invest in both technology and talent, we are well positioned to support the evolving needs of the businesses we serve while maintaining the responsive, personalized service our customers expect.
