Meet Our Team

We are a team of 75+ professionals. Every client gets named, dedicated staff rather than a rotating pool, working inside your systems and your processes.

Elliot Bodner, CPA, Senior Partner at River Edge Advisors
Chief Executive Officer

Elliot Bodner, CPA

Elliot is a managing member of the firm and holds final sign-off on the quality and completeness of client work. He began his career in public accounting at PwC, where he audited and advised companies across financial services and middle-market industry, then moved to Blue Mountain Capital and spent several years inside the reporting function of an institutional investment manager.

That combination shapes how he runs engagements today. He knows what an auditor will question, what an institutional allocator expects to see, and how far a set of books has to be from the standard before either becomes a problem. Clients typically work with him on technical accounting matters, reporting structure, and the financial statements that go to lenders, boards and outside accountants. He also teaches accounting and corporate finance, which is where much of the firm's training curriculum originates.

·Licensed Certified Public Accountant, State of New York
·12+ years in public accounting and institutional investment management
·Formerly PwC and Blue Mountain Capital
·Leads technical accounting, reporting standards and firm-wide training

Mark Reich, MBA, CPA, Senior Partner at River Edge Advisors
Chief Financial Officer

Mark Reich, MBA, CPA

Mark leads the firm's work with investment managers, healthcare operators and real estate owners. Over more than a decade in accounting and consulting he has built and run the finance function for hedge funds, private equity and venture firms, multi-entity real estate portfolios, and provider groups operating across several sites and payor mixes.

He is usually the partner in the room when the numbers have to satisfy someone outside the company. That means partner allocations and incentive fee calculations an LP will scrutinize, borrowing base and covenant reporting a warehouse lender will test, and practice-level economics an acquirer will diligence. He holds an MBA from NYU Stern and is a licensed CPA in New York, and works directly with clients' administrators, auditors and capital partners through close and year-end.

·Licensed Certified Public Accountant, State of New York
·MBA, New York University Stern School of Business
·10+ years advising funds, healthcare groups and real estate owners
·Leads fund accounting, investor reporting and lender-facing engagements

Chief Marketing Officer

Shlomo Wolfson

Shlomo directs business strategy and development at River Edge, and is the partner most clients meet first. He scopes engagements, structures the dedicated team that will run the account, and stays involved as the relationship grows. His background is in complex accounting for private equity, hedge funds and real estate, including entities with layered ownership, multiple reporting bases and demanding investor requirements.

Before River Edge he co-founded Bays Capital, which gave him an operator's view of what it actually costs a growing company to carry a finance function internally. He studied Finance at Touro College. Today he spends most of his time on two things: understanding what a prospective client needs before proposing anything, and building the specialty-finance side of the practice across bridge lending, merchant cash advance and factoring.

·15+ years in complex accounting across funds, real estate and specialty finance
·Co-founder, Bays Capital
·Finance, Touro College
·Leads engagement scoping, client strategy and specialty-finance practice

The bench behind the partners

Controllers, bookkeepers and AP/AR specialists do the daily work. That is why our CFO recommendations get implemented instead of added to a list.
