Ryan D
McNaughton

Prior to and during the credit crisis, Mr. McNaughton focused his practice primarily on traditional securitization asset classes, including RMBS, CMBS, trade receivables, automobile loan ABS and CLOs. Following the crisis, he has focused more extensively on the esoteric ABS market, including significant transactions in each of the following asset classes: whole business and other operating asset and royalty-backed securitizations; tax liens; PACE bonds; timeshare ABS; structured settlements; BDC lending (pre-securitization warehouse facilities); and wireless spectrum.

Other financing asset classes in which Mr. McNaughton has recently been active include wireless towers, data centers, alarm and home security receivables, non-performing mortgage loans, fix-and-flip commercial mortgage loans, venture-capital loans, film and TV production loans and solar development loans. In addition, Mr. McNaughton has worked on numerous public bond financings and project financings.

Mr. McNaughton is currently an Adjunct Professor at Cornell Law School, where he teaches a seminar on Secured Transactions. He is also an avid classical pianist.
