Cops Banker experience

Experience comes from the combined wealth of expertise in finance covered by the original principals of COPS Merchant Banking and continues to this day with Dan Overmyer, one of the original founders and his team of highly qualified experts in the company today.

Daniel Overmyer
President

Daniel Overmyer

As an efficient and effective long-time entrepreneur, Dan attended Denison University in Ohio. Later, he served in the US Military for more than three years as a Warrant Officer in the European Theatre. Upon his return Dan became one of the first visionaries in the (then) fledgling television industry. As such, he opened one of the first UHF television stations in Ohio, one that went on to become one of the early affiliates of television network giant, NBC.

Dan started and grew a transportation and warehousing business that came to include what we now deem to be Intermodal transport. Always thinking ahead, Dan's raison d'etre these days is to source new and elegant means of financing those enterprises that meet certain criterion he has classified after decades in business. Moreover, it is his intent to finance the more innovative of projects, particularly those of Third World nations and their infrastructure. Transportation and Communications are just two of the most recent projects financed by Dan and COPS MB and he is always on the lookout for new and exciting projects to delve into.
