Alta advisors to speak at ELFA Convention
Two leaders from The Alta Group will bring the advisory’s forward-focused perspective to the ELFA convention later this month.
Valerie L. Gerard, co-CEO and leader of The Alta Group’s Strategy & Competitive Alignment Practice, will moderate a discussion titled, “The Evolving Role of Banks and Independents in Equipment Finance” at 11:15 a.m. on Oct. 29. Attendees will gain insights into the current and expected competitive landscape for banks and independent equipment finance companies given the various challenges facing both banks and independents after several prominent bank failures in the spring of 2023 effectively altered this $1 trillion equipment finance industry.
Patricia Voorhees, a director with The Alta Group and chair of the ELFA Climate Finance Working Group, will lead a discussion titled, “Which Way are the Winds Blowing for Climate Finance?” at 2:30 p.m. on Oct. 28. The session will provide attendees with actionable insights to navigate the opportunity presented by climate finance, which is forecast to generate $18 trillion in financing between now and 2030. It will begin with a look at what the results of November’s election could mean for this growing sector. Panelists also will discuss the challenges and successes of financing solar projects, renewable energy and battery storage solutions and the rapidly evolving market for electric trucks and fleets.
Are you ready for Intelligence-as-a-Service?
The Equipment-as-a-Service market is on the brink of rapid change, as AI promises to bring a new level of real-time knowledge about usage and performance. These enhancements could lead to new revenue streams that make the hardware component of EaaS transactions smaller and smaller. But as Alta’s Diane Croessmann and Paul Bent recently wrote for the Monitor, we are entering the age of Intelligence-as-a-Service, as the assimilation of data from myriad worldwide end users creates significant opportunities for monetization.
