BERKELEY, Calif., Nov. 26, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Chancellor
Group, Inc. (OTCBB: CHAG), announced today that its 51%-owned
subsidiary, The Fuelist, LLC, has appointed Peter Hills Monroe to its Board of Advisors.
The Fuelist is a company specializing in cloud-based platform
and mobile app technology that brings data-driven valuations to the
classic and antique car market.
Monroe has held several senior private and government
positions. He served as President of the Resolution Trust
Corporation's (RTC) Oversight Board under Presidents Bush and
Clinton. Prominent board members during Monroe's tenure
included Treasury Secretaries Brady and Bentsen, as well as the
Chairman of the Federal Reserve, Alan
Greenspan. Following his work with the RTC, Monroe served as
chief operating officer of the Federal Housing Administration under
Jack Kemp.
A graduate of Williams College,
Oxford University and Harvard Law School, Monroe has had a long,
successful career in all phases of commercial real estate—from
development to sales.
Monroe said today: "I was born in Detroit and have deep family roots in the
automotive industry. My grandfather, Dr. Herbert H. Hills, an authentic automotive
pioneer, bought in 1904 the first Buick ever produced. Dr.
Hills also worked at Buick, where he developed a close relationship
with Will Durant, the founder of
General Motors. After working with Mr. Durant for several
years at Buick, Dr. Hills served for 17 years at the Packard Motor
Car Company as the number two executive-- head of sales under
Alvin McCauley. So you might
say the automotive industry is in my blood and I am excited about
the prospects of helping The Fuelist. I did not hesitate when I was
asked to help advise this team of top computer engineers and
designers.
"As an owner of 100,000 Chancellor Group shares and a 1.5%
equity interest in The Fuelist, I look forward to the
opportunity to advise The Fuelist and I hope to add value to
both companies."
Chancellor Chairman, Maxwell
Grant, said:
"It goes without saying that we believe someone of Peter Monroe's stature will be a huge advantage
for The Fuelist and therefore Chancellor. We believe this
appointment will aid Chancellor as it seeks to strengthen its
position in the area of cloud-based mobile application, big data
analytics, in-app payments and subscription revenue."
