Amur Equipment Finance, Inc. announced it has been ranked fifth in Monitor’s 2018 rankings of the “Top Private Independent” equipment finance and leasing companies in the U.S., which represents a gain of nine spots since 2016.

Amur EF achieved year-over-year originations growth of 66.7 percent in 2018, far exceeding the 17.2 percent average growth rate for the Top 25 Independents peer group. And Amur EF continues to experience solid originations growth in 2019, having recently concluded its second-best month in company history in April.

“We are very proud of our accomplishments in 2018 and believe our Monitor ranking reflects the gains we’ve made,” said Mostafiz ShahMohammed, Amur EF’s Chief Executive Officer. “AmurEF’s robust growth is the result of recent investments in its platform and processes, continued development of key partnerships and it’s unwavering commitment to the superior service and flexibility that AmurEF’s customers, vendors, and brokers have come to expect. As we continue to focus on our most valuable resource, our employees, we believe AmurEF remains well-positioned for growth and stability across all economic cycles.”

To support its objectives, Amur EF is actively recruiting talented equipment leasing professionals to fill a variety of positions across the country, including at its headquarters in Grand Island, NE, where Amur EF is renovating a new headquarters facility to accommodate future growth.
