About Westport Funding, LLC

Westport Funding, LLC is a full service high technology and business equipment leasing and finance company headquartered in Westport, Connecticut. Our primary strength is our ability to structure custom lease transactions that fit our customers' financial and technological requirements rather than try to shoehorn those requirements into a predefined program. As a vendor independent lessor, we are able to lease equipment supplied by most vendors and manufacturers. We focus on high technology assets, with a speciality focus on medical equipment, IT and computer equipment, commercial and industrial equipment, and renewable energy projects where we can provide construction phase / progress payment financing as well as permanent financing.
