FLOCK Specialty Finance Taps Investment Banker as New CFO

January 15, 2015, 07:26 AM

FLOCK, a specialty finance company which provides capital for the subprime consumer finance markets as well as for debt buyers of distressed and subprime consumer credit obligations, announced that John Wheeler, former Managing Director at Renova Partners, LLC, an investment bank focused on financial services, has joined FLOCK as Chief Financial Officer.

Wheeler is responsible not only for accounting, finance and treasury functions, but also underwriting and customer solution development.

“FLOCK is a specialty finance company that provides expertise and capital solutions to businesses that have been underserved by traditional banks and financial services companies. John’s financial expertise as well as his broad experience in the specialty finance industry will be a tremendous value to our clients,” said Michael Flock, Chairman and CEO. “As our company moves into new market segments like retail finance and subprime auto finance, John’s past experiences and insights will help our company create financial solutions to enable our clients to grow their businesses in complex and risky markets.”

Wheeler has more than 17 years of experience in finance and investment banking, including a focus on M&A and capital raise transactions for companies in the specialty finance and financial services industries. In 2008, he co-founded Servius Capital LLC, an Atlanta-based boutique investment bank focused on specialty finance and retail companies.

“I am excited for this opportunity to work with Michael and the FLOCK team,” Wheeler said. “Michael has assembled a diverse team of experienced professionals that takes a novel approach to their markets. I look forward to helping the company creatively deploy its capital in new markets.”

FLOCK’s mission is to provide clients with capital and expertise for the purchase of both charged off debt portfolios as well as for the financing of subprime consumer obligations. FLOCK is “more than a transaction”. FLOCK’s proprietary funding structure provides growth minded clients with a competitive advantage in multiple classes.
