Latin Builders Association Awards Benworth Capital Lender of the Year
The COVID-19 pandemic caused unparalleled levels of economic damage to Florida businesses and communities. It tested our resilience at a fundamental level, and many are still recovering. For lenders, particularly those serving minority communities, the challenge was both acute and urgent: to deploy capital that would extend lifelines and ensure survival in tremendous uncertainty.
Benworth Capital rose to the challenge. Between 2020 and 2021, we disbursed $4.5 billion in loans to more than 311,000 small businesses and individuals. We played an important role in shielding entrepreneurs and their employees from the pandemic’s harshest economic consequences.
Our efforts were recently recognized by the Latin Builders Association (LBA). The LBA awarded Benworth Lender of the Year, in part because of the assistance we provided during the pandemic. This is an esteemed honor that recognizes the profound impact lenders can have during crises in supporting and maintaining small businesses.
