Mount Street Group
Mount Street Group, a global third-party loan servicing and credit asset management firm, has appointed Dean Wheeler to the newly-created role of managing director, head of US operations.

Wheeler (pictured) has 30 years of executive management experience building and leading commercial real estate (“CRE”) loan servicing, asset management and special servicing platforms in the US and Canada, the firm said in a statement.

Based in Kansas City, he will be responsible for implementing Mount Street’s growth strategy in the US loan servicing market. Reporting directly to co-founder and CEO Paul Lloyd, he will oversee all loan servicing, asset management and special servicing activity, alongside growing the team and devising and implementing new technology-led strategies that leverage Mount Street’s CreditHub solution.

Previously, Wheeler was president and founder of software and consulting advisory business True North Performance Solutions. Before this, he was head of servicing and asset management operations at SitusAMC, where he was responsible for a 300-person, 8,000 loan, $160+ billion commercial real estate loan servicing and asset management portfolio.

“His experience managing very sizeable loan servicing and asset management portfolios is second to none, whilst his track record scaling businesses will be critical as we look to enhance and improve our infrastructure and rapidly grow our assets under management,” Lloyd said.
