Accruit, the leading Qualified Intermediary for 1031 Like-Kind Exchange services for personal
property, is pleased to announce that Brent Abrahm, co-founder of Accruit, has been named as
President and Chief Executive Officer.
Peter Blake, CEO of Ritchie Bros. and Accruit Board of Managers member, says, "Brent is an
outstanding choice for the President and CEO position at this juncture in the company�s
development. Brent�s previous leadership experience combined with his in-depth knowledge in
the Like-Kind Exchange industry will facilitate the growth of Accruit's business and move
Accruit to the next level of its corporate development. Brent is well respected and his
talents serve Accruit customers and strategic partners well."
As an innovator and industry pioneer, Abrahm was instrumental in creating the first small-ticket
repetitive Like-Kind Exchange program exclusively for personal property. In 2000, Abrahm
co-founded Accruit with then business partner Todd Fisher and served as its first CEO. As
the company expanded, Abrahm moved in to the highly strategic role of Executive Vice President
of Business Development in order to focus on the development of new market opportunities,
building business relationships and managing marketing and channel partner efforts.
During Abrahm's tenure as EVP, Accruit experienced double digit growth annually.
For more than 10 years, Abrahm has been a prominent figure in the Like-Kind Exchange industry.
As a frequent industry speaker and panelist, Abrahm has actively worked to expand awareness of
the benefit and importance of qualified intermediaries and Like-Kind Exchange programs
specifically with regard to personal property. Mr. Abrahm steps back into the role of CEO
with over 16 years of relevant business experience and successful leadership.
"I am honored to be reassuming the role of President and CEO for Accruit. Over the past
seven years, I have had the pleasure of working with the many talented people who have helped
make Accruit a success. The Accruit team is top notch, our clients are outstanding and our
partners are exceptional, and I look forward to working with them to move Accruit to the next
phase of our corporate development and growth," said Abrahm.
