Tishman Speyer has recently announced the launch of their new debt platform and the hiring of Amit Rustgi as Managing Director, Credit Strategies. In this newly created role, Rustgi will oversee originations for commercial real estate loans across various sectors such as residential, industrial, life science, office and mixed-use projects nationwide.
This move by Tishman Speyer is in line with their long-term strategy to diversify their portfolio. The company aims to target experienced sponsors operating in industries and locations where they have established a strong understanding and expertise.
According to CEO Rob Speyer, the current market conditions present a great opportunity for non-traditional lenders with regional knowledge to achieve attractive risk-adjusted returns through strategic debt investments.
