**SAN FRANCISCO, March 10, 2023** - Brex is offering an emergency bridge credit line to startup customers to support payroll and other operational spend needs. Startups impacted by today's Silicon Valley Bank news may not have access to the funds necessary for short-term operational spend. Working quickly with third-party capital providers and Brex Asset Management, Brex aims to have emergency funds available to startups early next week.
