Mike Scolaro is Group Head of Asset Based Lending at BMO Commercial Finance, a position he has held for over 17 years. He’s an asset-based lending legend, and in 2024 Barry had the honor of presiding over his induction into the SFNet Hall of Fame. He recently announced his imminent retirement from BMO and Barry thought it be a great time to get some unfiltered remarks from someone who is famous for being unfiltered in the first place. They discuss the many changes to the asset-based lending industry over the arc of his career, and share some thoughts on where it’s headed in the future. Mike also gives his passionate views on Notre Dame Football. He says in the wrap-up, “I don’t know why anybody would listen to this conversation”, but we’re sure you’ll find it interesting and insightful.
