Mission Lane Welcomes Brandon Black as CEO Amidst Funding Boost

Credit finance technology provider Mission Lane has named Brandon Black as its new CEO, succeeding former leader Shane Holdaway. Holdaway will facilitate the leadership transition as a special advisor to Black while retaining a stake in the company. Furthermore, in his new role as operating partner at Mission Lane’s principal shareholder, Invus Opportunities, he will explore investment opportunities.

In conjunction with the CEO announcement, the fintech disclosed securing additional funding from Invus Opportunities and QED Investors, though the exact amount remains undisclosed.

Black, a member of the fintech’s board since 2019, brings extensive industry experience, having begun his career at Capital One, where he oversaw various critical divisions, including customer service, collections, credit, and fraud.
