In his role as Managing Director of HGC, Swirsky will be responsible for overseeing the division’s operations including developing and growing its customer base, implementing and executing its sales and marketing strategies, and assisting in the implementation of Heritage’s fixed asset financing strategies, products and services— including equipment lending and real estate transactions.

Heritage Global Valuations is a recognized leader in asset valuation and advisory services. Its customers include lenders, lessors, private equity groups, investment banks, accountants, tax professionals, business owners and others who have the need for straightforward, real world valuations. In his role as Director of HGV, Marc will be responsible for managing the division’s key existing client relationships as well as developing new relationships with clients and lenders in the western region.

Swirsky brings nearly 30 years of experience in the used industrial equipment valuation / disposition sector and had served in executive roles at several nationally recognized auction and valuation firms. He is a highly regarded specialist in the auction and appraisal industry and has extensive expertise managing hundreds of complete industrial liquidations and valuations.

In addition, throughout his career he has built strong customer relationships and worked closely with leading asset-based lenders to complete thousands of valuations representing billions of dollars in net recovery value across a broad spectrum of industries.
