Seasoned finance executive will spearhead digital exchange’s capital strategy to support next phase of growth
MAXEX, the digital exchange for trading U.S. residential mortgage loans through a single centralized clearinghouse, today announced the appointment of John McNeill as Chief Financial Officer, based in the company’s Atlanta headquarters. As a member of MAXEX’s executive leadership team, McNeill will lead the company’s financial strategy, including capital formation, capital deployment, financial operations and corporate growth initiatives.
“MAXEX has built a tremendous technology company and loan trading business attracting over 400 blue-chip originators and the market’s leading institutional buyers to the exchange. I am honored to join this talented leadership team and look forward to helping craft and execute our capital strategy to support the company’s next chapter of growth,” said McNeill.
McNeill brings more than two decades of finance, accounting and capital markets experience spanning mortgage finance, fintech and asset management. He has held senior leadership positions at several of the mortgage industry’s most recognized companies, including Ocwen Financial Corporation and Home Loan Servicing Solutions, as well as leadership roles across fintech and global asset management organizations. Most recently, he served as CFO of Spring Oaks Capital, an innovative fintech company focused on the management of consumer credit portfolios.
“John’s financial expertise and deep mortgage and credit market experience make him an excellent addition to MAXEX at a pivotal time in the company’s growth,” said Tom Pearce, CEO, Chairman, and Co-Founder of MAXEX. “With Tradeweb’s recent strategic investment and collaboration, John will play a critical role as we continue to expand the business both organically and through strategic growth opportunities while advancing our vision to fully digitize the U.S. residential mortgage market.”
McNeill joins MAXEX amid continued business momentum. Earlier this year, MAXEX entered a strategic collaboration with Tradeweb Markets, a leading global operator of electronic marketplaces for rates, credit, equities and money markets, expanding institutional access to U.S. residential mortgage trading. The company continues to broaden its market presence and deepen liquidity across its growing exchange network.
