JASON KOPCAK

PRESIDENT, CEO & DIRECTOR

Mr. Kopcak brings 25+ years of experience including approximately 13 years on Wall Street with time spent at Morgan Stanley and Nomura. Jason Kopcak is well known as an industry leader on the Street in the whole loan space and in developing the Alternative Lending market. In 2012, he was brought in at Nomura to lead and build out of their whole loan business.  Initial focus was on distressed opportunities (non-performing and re-performing).  In 2013 at Nomura, he led the alternative lending effort (e.g., transitional residential and commercial real estate, SFR, Non-QM, etc.) to create an institutional market for these products at a time when banks were not participating in these assets. The attractive yields on these assets in a newly developing market quickly became in-demand with money managers, insurance companies, and credit funds. Due to his success in the space, he was recruited by Morgan Stanley in 2018 to help lead the effort to reposition Morgan Stanley in the residential space.
