Somerville spent 28 years at Fitch Ratings, most recently as head of North American CMBS where he grew an analyst pool of twenty at the end of the global financial crisis to a group of over seventy, all the while establishing Fitch as the leader in CMBS ratings. His tenure at Fitch also included heading Fitch’s EMEA structured finance team in London and its AsiaPac structured finance team in Sydney, as well as co-heading REIT ratings, leading North American RMBS, and managing corporate communications. At CounterpointeSRE, Huxley will lead a team to oversee and manage assets including C-PACE, bridge loans and energy project financings.

Since 2013, CounterpointeSRE has been instrumental in the foundations of the C-PACE industry and has grown to include green mortgages and energy project finance.
