Peakhill Capital expands credit business into U.S. through hiring of Sandor Biderman

BETHESDA, Md., March 16, 2023 /PRNewswire/ – Peakhill Capital announced today that it has expanded its credit footprint into the United States. As part of its U.S. expansion plan, Peakhill has added a new managing partner, Sandor Biderman, to lead its U.S. credit operations and grow the company’s North American credit reach. Biderman brings over thirty years of experience in loan origination, credit, and investment management. He will work alongside Harley Gold, Managing Partner of Peakhill Capital and Jonah Belkin, Managing Partner of Peakhill Equity Partners who will continue to be focused on overseeing the Company’s investment strategies.

Prior to joining Peakhill, Biderman spent twelve years at Walker & Dunlop, where he was the Chief Production Officer, Proprietary Capital leading the firm’s multifamily balance sheet lending program and joint venture with Blackstone Mortgage Trust.

In his new role at Peakhill, Biderman will be responsible for continuing the company’s U.S. expansion, with the goal of generating $300 million of high yield credit investments over the next 12 months. Initial focus will be subordinate preferred equity behind multifamily agency debt.

Harley Gold said, “We are excited to have Sandor lead our expansion of our credit business into the U.S. His experience and client base gives us a lot of confidence to implement our strategy.”
