Not all financial institutions are in a position to understand the unique challenges facing waste management organizations or, for that matter, tailor a loan program and other financing options to these entities.
At Comerica Bank, our environmental services specialists are immersed in the operational and regulatory nuances of waste management, waste-to-energy, recycling businesses and more. This allows us to build financial services around the unique requirements of the space and customize them to clients in all aspects of environmental services.
"We're relationship bankers," Joe Ursuy, Senior Vice President, Environmental Services at Comerica Bank, said. "We work quickly. We ask good questions of our clients. We can benchmark. We offer good ideas. We can talk to them about what we are seeing going on across the entire country."
Our environmental expertise extends to the technology, recycling equipment and facilities involved in the transportation, treatment, storage, recycling and disposal of waste. This includes solid wastes, liquid wastes, landfill gas, hazardous materials, medical waste and more. We employ this knowledge, as well as our cash flow flexibility and understanding of our clients' values, to help waste and recycling businesses in the U.S. and Canada grow their operations and make smart financial decisions that will drive organization-wide benefits. Our environmental experts also provide the means to achieve business goals, from equipment leasing and financing, to working capital that spurs long-term, profitable growth.
"Comerica understands the challenges and provides solutions in several ways," Ursuy explained. "We can offer a lot of resources to our customers - private equity, wealth management, accounting, insurance."
