Established in 1985 in Chicago, Illinois, BKV began as a regional equipment lessor before expanding its product suite to include inventory and receivables financing. Strategic acquisitions in the 1990s and early 2000s broadened the firm’s capabilities, leading to an entry into real estate development and property management. In 2003, the company relocated its headquarters to New York City to better serve its growing national and international clientele.
Today, BKV maintains a global presence with offices in major financial centers, including London, Singapore and Toronto. Its broad geographic reach enables the firm to support clients across North America, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. BKV’s vertically integrated approach combines capital deployment with in-house underwriting and asset management teams, allowing for efficient deal execution and ongoing portfolio oversight.
The company is led by Chief Executive Officer Robert M. Brown, who joined BKV in 2010 after a long tenure in corporate banking, and Chief Financial Officer Sarah L. Johnson, a finance executive with more than twenty years of experience in capital markets and treasury operations. Reporting to an independent board of directors, the senior management team focuses on disciplined growth, risk management and delivering long-term value for shareholders.
