Throughout his more than 30-year industry career, Baron Silverstein has managed and led mortgage and capital markets platforms through a variety of transitions and market backdrops. His resume, which includes senior roles at Bear Stearns, JP Morgan Chase, Merrill Lynch and Bank of America Securities in addition to most recently leading Newrez, is nothing short of impressive. Today, Silverstein defines success not merely by the way he leads, but by his ability to empower others to lead. As Newrez continues to grow, Silverstein continues to set the right tone and culture in which industry leaders are able to develop and navigate the peaks and challenges of the ever-evolving mortgage space. Silverstein joined Newrez as president in May 2020. Tasked with growing Newrez during the COVID-19 pandemic and an explosive period of mortgage lending, Silverstein’s approach to leadership was both attentive and progressive. Silverstein’s full view of the mortgage lifecycle and customer journey — from both a lending and servicing perspective — has allowed him to make extremely important and often difficult decisions in the short term for Newrez while also maintaining a strategic foresight and a steadfast focus on the company’s long-term goals.
