Warren Dedrick
Chairman

Originally from California, Warren was able to see the world with his family because his father was a career Military Officer. Warren especially enjoyed his three years growing up in Europe. Warren attended the University of Virginia and majored in Accounting.

In 1970, Warren began working for Nationwide Credit Corporation, a large regional collection agency headquartered in northern Virginia. In 1979, after reaching the Vice President level with Nationwide, Warren embarked on an entrepreneurial adventure that involved opening and operating Capital Recovery Service.

After building Capital Recovery Service into the 44th largest collection agency in the country with five operating divisions, Warren chose to sell his interest in the company so he could devote more time and energy into other entrepreneurial enterprises.

Warren is founder and owner of Marlin Capital Holdings and all of its subsidiaries. Since beginning the company Warren has been a Pioneer in not only the purchase of Debt from new sectors but also as a major force in the development of software for Debt Purchasers. His success is proven by the huge market share that our sister companies have in the Medical, Utility and Check sectors.

Although Warren's primary focus is on the development of new markets in the debt purchase sector he also continues to diversify Marlin by adding a Charter Boat company, real estate venture, call centers outside of US and also others. Warren continues to be a sought after speaker at trade shows, not only the in collections arena, but also in the various markets Marlin purchases from.

In order to continue his diversification Warren has also led the charge for Marlin to move in to different parts of the world. Companies have been formed in the U.K., Brazil and Latvia. Deals have been negotiated as well throughout North America.

Martin Germanis
Chief Executive Officer

Martin completed both his undergraduate and graduate studies at George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia. His degrees are in Management Information Systems. A strong emphasis on business, mathematics, computer sciences, and statistics prepared him well for the roles at Marlin Holdings.

In his first years at Marlin Holdings, Martin was the technical lead for CR Software in developing the nations leading collections software, the Collection Resource System. Via many of his efforts, not only has Marlin benefited by having a strong system to collect debts but his contributions to the evaluation and analysis of portfolios has been invaluable.

The tools have been developed and now Martin is in the process of refining the collection process. Being one of the largest debt purchasers in the country has brought on the need for quality outsourcing. The management of this process is now a primary focus as well as leading the company to not only new markets in the US but all over the world in both the debt purchase and the collection software industries.
