MBA promotes new VP, managing regulatory counsel

The Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) has filled another major position following the promotion of two company veterans last week.

MBA has announced elevating Justin Wiseman (pictured) to vice president, managing regulatory counsel. In his new role, Wiseman will head the association’s regulatory policy team and oversee MBA’s work on legal issues and trends, agency rulemaking, and regulatory compliance.

“Justin has been a tremendous asset to MBA and an invaluable resource to our members, providing strategic direction and strong legal intellect on a plethora of regulatory compliance and policy issues during his decade-plus tenure,” said Pete Mills, senior vice president of residential policy and strategic industry engagement at the MBA.

Wiseman has held various ascending roles since joining MBA in 2012, first as associate regulatory counsel and director of loan administration policy. He was promoted in 2017 to AVP, managing regulatory counsel, overseeing the association’s legal and regulatory issues for loan production, servicing, pending rules and legislation, and leading the amicus brief program.  

“I can’t think of anyone more deserving of this promotion, and I am fully confident that Justin will continue to be an exemplary leader and will successfully formulate and advance MBA member priorities on regulatory and legal matters,” Mills said.
