A Proven Hardware Financing Company with Decades of Success

Now a leading hardware financing company nationwide, River Capital Finance was founded as MRK Leasing more than 30 years ago. Originally a small direct lender, MRK Leasing survived competition from local companies and large banking organizations.

Without losing the entrepreneurial spirit, MRK Leasing eventually became a full-service hardware financing company. Growing from an office in downtown Cleveland to the suburb of Westlake, MRK Leasing began handling asset management for its clients in a 50,000-square-foot warehouse.

After running out of space in three years, MRK Leasing moved to a new building in Westlake and re-branded as River Capital Finance, establishing itself as a leader among hardware financing companies across the nation.

Today, River Capital is proud to specialize in Hardware as a Service (HaaS), the most comprehensive mobility lifecycle management solution designed for businesses looking for hardware financing solutions. Combining hardware, software, and other support services into one simple, predictable monthly payment, HaaS makes it easier and more affordable to keep up-to-date with the latest technology on the market and ensure it is stable, secure, and available when needed.
