IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Bankruptcy Management Solutions (BMS) unveiled a new name and brand, Stretto, to reflect the company’s growth and evolution into a full-service bankruptcy-administration technology and services provider.
“We’re excited to announce the launch of our new brand and, in essence, a new company direction,” comments Eric Kurtzman, co-CEO at Stretto. “We have not only changed the look, touch and feel of BMS, but also have grown the company from its roots as the market leader in consumer-bankruptcy services to now provide a wider array of administrative solutions to the broader fiduciary industry.”
Kurtzman and co-CEO Jonathan Carson partnered with investment funds managed by Stone Point Capital LLC in acquiring the business in 2017. Under the executive leadership of these bankruptcy industry veterans, the company now offers a more comprehensive range of fiduciary services for professionals, including an expanded suite of corporate restructuring solutions, a receivership-focused practice and specialty deposits business line.
Stretto remains the market leader in the consumer-bankruptcy administration space, with more than 50 percent of United States Chapter 7 panel trustees as clients. The executive management team will maintain the company’s legacy of industry leadership in consumer bankruptcy by providing Stretto’s proprietary combination of professional-level client service, tailored processes and best-in-class technology to a growing share of American bankruptcy trustees.
“With our expanded focus and new brand, Stretto provides the foundation to manage the complex administrative and fiduciary needs of the corporate and consumer bankruptcy industries,” Carson comments. “While we have a new name and new look, our commitment to clients remains stronger than ever, and we are well-positioned for continued expansion and success.”
In recent months, several new team members and bankruptcy industry veterans have joined the company as it executes its growth strategy, including James Le as chief operating officer, Scott Barna as chief integration officer and Chris Updike as general counsel.
