Tiger Finance appointed Jason Rae, an asset-based lending veteran with 23 years of experience in asset valuation, advisory and disposition services, as managing director, national sales.
Since joining Tiger in 2012, Rae has been a key contributor to the company’s overall growth and has participated in some of its largest disposition ventures. In his new role, the Boston-based executive is responsible for expanding Tiger Finance’s outreach throughout the North American marketplace, sourcing secured debt opportunities and developing new and enhancing existing strategic relationships with lenders, private equity sponsors, advisors and investment banks.
Rae previously co-led Tiger Valuation Services’ business development team and covered the New England and Canadian markets, gaining in-depth knowledge of asset appraisal and collateral monitoring methodologies for both consumer and industrial goods.
“Having worked with Jason for many years, I have seen firsthand his ability to identify and service customers’ needs across various industries and source capital and product solutions,” Bob DeAngelis, executive managing director/group head at Tiger Finance, said. “In support of our continued growth, we are excited to have Jason join the Tiger Finance team to lead our national sales initiatives and provide creative, innovative capital solutions for our clients.”
Rae’s appointment follows Tiger’s announcement that banking professional Mitch Rubin has joined the firm as a senior director of business development focused on the New York and Boston markets. Business development director Eric Schloemer has taken charge of Tiger Valuation Services’ Canadian operations.
“I look forward to collaborating with new and existing partners to help clients across North America unlock additional liquidity,” Rae said. “Our finance platform’s ability to draw upon Tiger’s deep institutional asset intelligence and proprietary analytics allows us to deliver flexible financing solutions quickly and decisively.”
“As borrowers navigate the uncertain and volatile marketplace, accessing flexible and intelligent capital is paramount to managing profitable operations,” DeAngelis said. “Tiger’s unique understanding of assets and solution-based philosophy has led to consistent strong growth deploying capital and meeting client needs.”
