Mr. Sese brings more than 25 years of experience across finance, strategy, and corporate development. He began his career at Morgan Stanley Smith Barney, where he advised affluent individuals and institutional clients throughout Latin America. He has developed a strong track record in business strategy, private equity, and mergers and acquisitions, with a particular focus on logistics, distribution, and land development in South Florida. Mr. Sese earned his MBA in Business and Finance from University of Miami and has held multiple financial licenses, including Series 3, 7, 24, 31, and 65. He is also a lifetime member of Beta Kappa Sigma.
“Fortun isn’t just a strong operating model – it’s a disciplined, data-driven platform that can scale responsibly,” said Mr. Sese. “What stood out to me from day one was the combination of real demand from underserved small businesses, a team that executes, and a culture that respects risk. As CFO, my focus will be on strengthening reporting and controls, optimizing capital and liquidity, and helping ensure that growth translates into durable cash flow and long-term shareholder value. I’m honored to step into this role at such an important stage in the Company’s evolution.”
