eCapital, a tech-enabled finance provider for middle-market businesses in North America and the UK, appointed Peter Dahill as chief financial officer (CFO). This strategic move demonstrates eCapital’s commitment to bolstering its executive team and advancing its fintech roadmap while ensuring seamless leadership succession. Current CFO Cris Neely will transition to strategic advisor, providing expertise and guidance to eCapital’s CEO on key initiatives and future growth plans.
Assuming the CFO position at eCapital, Dahill will leverage his extensive experience as executive vice president of finance at the company. Previously, he served as CFO at CNH Finance, a healthcare finance company acquired by eCapital in 2021. Dahill also held significant roles at AQR Capital Management and KPMG, where he honed his deep leadership and financial services expertise. His proven track record of optimizing financial performance will play a crucial role as eCapital seizes opportunities in the dynamic fintech landscape.
“Peter’s outstanding contributions to eCapital, demonstrated through his exemplary work with the executive team, partners and the finance group have already made a profound impact,” Marius Silvasan, CEO of eCapital, said. “His extensive background in finance and leadership skills have been instrumental in propelling our growth. I am confident that Peter will excel in his new role, and I look forward to our continued collaboration as we strengthen our financial operations to achieve our ambitious objectives.”
Neely, who served as eCapital’s CFO for over a decade, will now take on the role of strategic advisor to the CEO. In this capacity, he will advise on major initiatives supporting the CEO and the company’s long-term objectives.
“I am personally very grateful to Cris’s contributions as CFO and excited for his continued role as strategic advisor,” Silvasan said. “His industry knowledge and perspective have had a meaningful impact and helped shape eCapital into what it is today. His ongoing guidance ensures we benefit from his insights as we pursue our goals and uphold our commitment to exceptional performance.”
