Kennedy Capin, a respected leader and former lender in the asset-based lending (ABL) industry, is acquiring CoreVision Strategies, a provider of risk management and due diligence services. As part of this acquisition, Capin will serve as managing partner, overseeing business strategy, sales and partnerships, and technology related initiatives, while Joann Pignataro will continue to lead the delivery of collateral diligence services. All existing staff have also been retained.
“I first met the team at CoreVision back in my underwriting days when they performed field exams on some of my most complex deals. What set them apart from other providers was their skill, a lot of them being former lenders themselves, and focus on partnership, not just with me as the Lender but also with the Borrower. There are several CoreVision relationships that exceed a decade and in today’s transactional world, that’s really incredible and speaks to the existing leadership. I’m honored to carry that legacy forward as we look at expanded solutions for clients.”
Capin brings over 15 years of ABL experience to CoreVision Strategies, most recently as an executive in JPMorgan Chase’s ABL division. During her tenure with the firm, she held leadership roles in credit risk, originations and structuring, operations, and executive management. Capin’s unique blend of product expertise, market insight and operational leadership — along with her strong network and passion for innovation — uniquely positions her to lead CoreVision into its next chapter.
“Kennedy has the insight, drive, and credibility to take CoreVision to the next level,” Martin Hali, founder of CoreVision, said. “I’m proud of what we’ve built and excited to see the firm grow under her leadership.”
“Today’s asset-based lenders face significant pressure to grow by delivering tailored, high-touch client experiences while keeping costs low, moving quickly, and effectively managing risk,” Capin said. “Layer on volatility in historically stable markets, a swathe of new, non-bank lenders, shortage of skilled but costly ABL professionals, and unevolved technology to serve long standing industry pain points. This is where I see opportunity for CoreVision to step in with an agile combination of human led, technology enabled services which empower lenders of all kinds to make faster, smarter decisions, strengthen borrower relationships and differentiate themselves — without compromising on accuracy or risk controls.”
