While the COVID-19 pandemic has caused many equipment finance companies to drastically reduce their operations and service levels, NewLane Finance, a subsidiary of WSFS Bank, continues to operate at full scale and remains focused on providing critical equipment financing and other support to businesses nationwide.

“NewLane is committed to doing whatever it can to help businesses during this unprecedented time,” said George Pelose, President of NewLane. “By continuing to fund new equipment loans and leases and by providing personalized customer service and support, the NewLane team is working to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on customers, equipment dealers, and lease brokers.”

“We understand that it’s a challenging time for many businesses. To help ease the burden, we provided immediate solutions to help customers navigate through this difficult time,” said Daniel P. Dyer, NewLane’s CEO.
