“FSW recently engaged Asset Based Lending Consultants (“ABLC”) to perform a field exam for a prospect in Missouri. Time was of the essence and ABLC was able to quickly deploy an examiner to the prospects site and complete the exam within our required time. FSW was extremely impressed with the level of professionalism and expertise of the field exam. I would definitely recommend ABLC to any asset based lender and ABLC will be our choice going forward for field exams.”
