Attention All Brokers
The Board of Directors is excited to announce the hiring of Reid Raykovich, CLP, to fill the position of Executive Director when Cindy Spurdle retires this summer.

and international agencies. I help brokers and lessors structure transactions, and I am a registered consultant to the World Bank and a senior advisor to the US Agency for International Development. Recently an associate and I completed the Global Leasing Toolkit on behalf of the International Finance Corporation, an affiliate of the World Bank.
I have always been an independent lessor. After graduating from col

This strategy has worked out very well.
Congratulations to Lori Dean, CLP
