Executive will be instrumental in standardizing its mortgage platform
Digital mortgage clearinghouse MAXEX has announced that Lesley Goldwasser (pictured) has been appointed to its board of directors.
A veteran leader in the structured finance sector, Goldwasser had been an investor in MAXEX for several years and has served as an advisor to the company since its launch in 2016. She is also currently a managing partner at GreensLedge, an independent investment banking firm focused on the structured credit and alternative investment marketplace. Before that, Goldwasser led the Global Hedge Fund Strategic Services unit at Credit Suisse Group AG.
Goldwasser joins MAXEX’s team of directors and advisors, including digital banking stalwart Blythe Masters, former White House housing policy advisor Jim Parrott, and former Bear Stearns senior executive and current MarketAxess board director Steven Begleiter.
“Lesley has been an important partner in the execution of MAXEX’s vision from the beginning,” said MAXEX chairman and CEO Tom Pearce. “Her deep expertise and relationships in the structured credit markets have played a pivotal role in leading the non-agency mortgage community towards standardization through MAXEX. We are thrilled to have her now officially join our team as a member of our board.”
