Cameron Stephens Accelerated Lending Program Surpasses $100 Million in Commitments.

TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cameron Stephens Mortgage Capital Ltd. (“Cameron Stephens”) is pleased to announce that its Accelerated Lending Program has surpassed $100 million in loan commitments, underscoring strong market demand for fast, flexible commercial real estate (“CRE”) financing solutions.

Launched in summer 2025, the Accelerated Lending Program offers single-advance inventory, term, bridge, and land loans up to $15 million, with a streamlined commitment process of under 15 days. The program’s first $100 million in commitments span a well-diversified mix of residential inventory, residential land, and select commercial assets — demonstrating its ability to deliver creative capital solutions across multiple stages of the development cycle and a broad range of CRE asset classes.

The program draws on capital from Cameron Stephens’ internal mortgage funds — including Cameron Stephens Mortgage Trust (CSMT), Bay Street High Yield Fund (BSHY), and Western Canada High Yield Fund (WCHY) — offering borrowers a direct and efficient funding process. This approach significantly reduces time to close.

“Crossing the $100 million mark this quickly validates what we’re hearing from the market — borrowers experiencing longer approval timelines with traditional lenders and need private capital that can move with speed and precision,” said Steve Cameron, President & Chief Operating Officer. “The Accelerated Lending Program lets us deploy smart capital efficiently, supporting our clients’ projects while maintaining the discipline our investors.

From an investment management perspective, the program has also become a valuable tool for dynamic capital allocation across Cameron Stephens’ mortgage funds. “The early momentum in this program has been very strong, both in terms of deal quality and volume,” added Katie Bonar, SVP, Investment Management. “The short-duration, well-structured loans we are originating through the Accelerated Lending Program are delivering attractive risk-adjusted returns and complementing our broader credit strategies across the funds.”

The Accelerated Lending Program is powered by up to $500 million in discretionary capital from Cameron Stephens’ mortgage funds, providing meaningful capacity for continued growth as the platform scales.

With this milestone, Cameron Stephens continues to expand its comprehensive suite of commercial real estate lending solutions — combining institutional-grade underwriting with entrepreneurial agility and a simplified, accelerated path to funding.
