ComplianceEase has announced the appointment of Sharif Mahdavian as vice president of National Sales, where he will oversee the company’s interactions with federal and state regulator clients, the government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs), and capital market participants.
Prior to joining ComplianceEase, Mahdavian was vice president of Business Development for LenderLive’s Due Diligence Division where he was actively involved in complex regulatory initiatives and due diligence implementation. Previously, Mahdavian spent 10 years at S&P Global Ratings where he was instrumental in analyzing and evaluating key drivers impacting credit and regulatory compliance risk, including due diligence standards and practices. As a leader in the RMBS space, he was also responsible for market outreach on securitization issues and identifying trends in the marketplace relevant to the analytical process. Earlier in his career, Mahdavian practiced law, as both a county assistant district attorney and through his own private law practice.
“Now more than ever, compliance is a major factor in determining the risk of different assets. Sharif is able to combine traditional credit analysis with his extensive agency experience to help our clients understand and assess all of the possible factors that could impact credit risk decisions,” said Dan Smith, senior vice president of Sales at ComplianceEase. “We are pleased to welcome Sharif to the ComplianceEase team.”
