John DelPonti has joined the valuation and financial risk management practice of Navigant Capital Advisors, a wholly owned subsidiary of Navigant Consulting, as a managing director in the Washington, DC office.
DelPonti will focus on providing strategy, operations and risk management services to mortgage banking clients.
“The mortgage industry is undergoing a unique transformation, and our clients are demanding insight into how to best position their business to address this change,” says Richard Hitt, managing director and leader of Navigant Capital Advisors’ valuation and financial risk management practice. “John’s combination of mortgage strategy, valuation, risk management, transaction and operational experience allows him to address client needs across this entire spectrum.”
DelPonti has more than 20 years of experience in mortgage banking, commercial banking, capital markets operations, loan valuation and restructuring, portfolio asset management, financial due diligence, post merger integration, and risk management including bank regulatory and compliance management. He is a former partner at PricewaterhouseCoopers where he managed business advisory and audit services engagements specializing in the mortgage banking and consumer finance industries.
Prior to re-joining Navigant, where he was previously a managing director, DelPonti was the founder and chief executive of an integrated mortgage company which purchased distressed residential mortgage loans and was a fully licensed specialty servicer and originator of residential loans.
"I am very pleased to be returning to Navigant. This truly is a unique time with unprecedented change and challenge for all companies involved in mortgage banking,” says DelPonti. “I firmly believe that Navigant is the ideal platform to assist clients and have the maximum impact in helping shape success and maximise value.”
