* What is Middle Market?

The middle market is a cornerstone of the American economy, contributing approximately one-third of the GDP and driving the majority of new job creation in the United States. Collectively, these privately owned businesses generate over $10 trillion in annual revenue. By definition, middle-market companies have annual revenues between $10 million and $1 billion. 
Middle-market companies employ nearly 50 million Americans—a figure poised for significant growth, according to the National Center for the Middle Market. With an average lifespan of 31 years, these businesses have demonstrated remarkable resilience, thriving through economic downturns and financial crises.
Middle-market businesses play a critical role in the U.S. economy, bridging the gap between small enterprises and large corporations. They not only contribute directly to economic vitality but also serve as essential links within supply chains, fostering collaboration across diverse sectors.
Many of America's most iconic businesses—like Hewlett Packard, FedEx, Travelers, and Salesforce—were founded with a focus on supporting and serving the middle market. We are proud to stand alongside them, dedicated to empowering middle-market companies to thrive and grow.
