"We have a strong track record of bringing lending and cash-management strategies to support our clients by utilizing innovative and flexible capital structures."

"Western Alliance Bank has been a great partner to my companies for many years through our banking relationship," said Derek Stevens, CEO, Circa Hospitality Group. "When the time came to refinance, Western Alliance Gaming worked with our team to come to terms quickly, along with Comerica and Wells Fargo, allowing us to capitalize on historically low interest rates. I'm very excited about this deal and look forward to working with Western Alliance as we continue to grow our businesses."
