PHILADELPHIA, Mar 7, 2000 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Resource America, Inc. (NASDAQ:REXI) announces a new, significant alliance between its leasing subsidiary, Fidelity Leasing, Inc. ("Fidelity") and The Chase Manhattan Bank.
Fidelity, a leading provider of equipment financing for small business users, will integrate its e-commerce platform with the Chase Small Business web site. Under the terms of the alliance, small business customers throughout the US will have Internet access to lease financing as part of the Chase Small Business initiatives and product offerings.

The same Fidelity e-commerce processing center is currently serving small business equipment finance programs for many leading manufacturers of information technology equipment.
Abe Bernstein, CEO of Fidelity Leasing Inc., said "This alliance with Chase Manhattan further confirms the importance of the small business marketplace. Most significantly, it asserts Fidelity's position as a leader in e-commerce lease financing to small business."
