MINNEAPOLIS, MN / ACCESSWIRE / November 3, 2022 / Mill City Ventures III, Ltd. ("Mill City" or the "Company") (Nasdaq:MCVT) announced today its funding of a settled insurance claim in the amount of $855,000. The related short-term note is expected to mature in 120 days and involve an annualized return of 33.5%.

Mill City Chief Executive Officer, Douglas M. Polinsky, said, "This latest closing is one more example of our ability to profitably service a growing need in the financing markets. With rising inflation and rapidly rising interest rates, borrowers are facing an increasing number of hurdles to clear in their efforts to access capital on a short-term basis. There continues to be a large funding gap between the needs of small- and medium-sized businesses and the institution-based financing available to them. Our ability to quickly create financing solutions for a variety of needs is proving to be a significant growth engine for Mill City Ventures."
