DLL, a global asset finance company for equipment and technology and the U.S.’ top vendor finance company, announced the expansion of its Construction, Transportation, and Industrial (CT&I) new business development (NBD) team. As a result of this expansion, the team will have full global coverage and expertise.

Michael Hart, who has served as the Head of New Business Development for the Americas since 2019, will be joined by Steve Hope, who previously served as a North America Program Manager for DLL. Hope has been appointed Head of New Business Development in Europe. In addition, Daniel Foster, Head of Regional Sales, Asia, Australia and New Zealand, will expand his role and be responsible for supporting NBD for the Asia-Pacific region.

Jointly, the team brings over 60 years of experience in the equipment finance industry and their partnership will further strengthen the NBD teams in its local regions and globally. They will be dedicated to helping customers access innovative financial solutions that support the effective management of equipment.

“We are thrilled to bring these three experts together to offer true global coverage to our partners and to provide them with the opportunity to pursue new CT&I business ventures in our key regions,” said Martin Joli, Head of Global New Business Development for CT&I. “Their knowledge and passion for the industry will empower them to drive results and successfully grow DLL customer’s and partner’s businesses.”

The CT&I NBD team will be focused on growing new and existing business initiatives, as well as traditional segments such as construction, material handling and transportation. In addition, as companies are transitioning to more electric and automated technologies, DLL is committed to making new industry trends and developments financially accessible for its manufacturers, dealers and distributors.

Hope, Hart, Foster and Joli plan to attend noteworthy industry events, such bauma, CONEXPO and CECE Congress.
