Daniel Gotay joined Asset Based Lending (ABL) when the company had just 20 employees, tasked with building and managing the Capital Markets and Treasury teams from the ground up. Today, as the head of Capital Markets & Operations, he oversees six teams and plays a pivotal role in developing new relationships in the secondary markets. His efforts have transformed ABL’s financing capabilities, facilitating over $1.5 billion in whole loan trading, securitization and warehouse financing.
Under Gotay’s leadership, ABL has executed more than $450 million in DSCR loan sales and completed two securitization deals totaling $338 million in the past 18 months. His work also led to the closure of $200 million in new warehouse capacity, establishing ABL as a top-tier issuer in the lending industry. These achievements contributed to ABL’s recognition on the 2024 INC 5000 list, reflecting a 190% growth rate over three years.
Beyond capital markets, Gotay has expanded ABL’s capabilities through rating agency integration and offshore efficiencies. His active involvement in the mortgage industry, including AAPL membership and regular conference participation, ensures ABL remains at the forefront of market trends and innovation. His contributions also extend to organizational culture, having launched company-wide initiatives like Connectivity Week to foster collaboration among employees.
Committed to building both teams and the ABL brand, Gotay prioritizes mentorship and professional development. His approach to hiring emphasizes not only technical skills but also cultural fit and adaptability, helping ABL earn industry recognition as a Scotsman Guide Top Workplace for 2025.
