NEW YORK, March 6, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The change in name reflects the growth of Argentic's business and its emergence as a prominent U.S. real estate lending platform. There will be no change in Argentic's leadership, investment process, locations or ownership, which includes affiliates of Elliott Management Corporation and Silverpeak.
Doug Tiesi, CEO of Argentic, states, "This next phase of our evolution is attributable to the industry's recognition of our business model; Argentic has become a well-known commercial real estate debt franchise."
Mark Walsh, Co-Founder at Silverpeak added, "We are excited to see Argentic take this step forward, which is reflective of their accomplishments to-date. We look forward to maintaining our partnership and will continue to be helpful in their next phase of growth."
Since Argentic's founding in 2013, the group has differentiated itself as a multi-strategy real estate lending platform. As of December 31, 2018, Argentic has executed $6.7 billion of loan originations, $4.9 billion in CMBS securitizations and $1.2 billion in notional value of CMBS B-piece transactions. Most recently, Argentic was ranked as the #1 non-bank CMBS conduit lender and the #2 buyer of risk-retained conduit B-pieces by Commercial Mortgage Alert for 2018.
"Our vision is to be the preferred real estate debt manager for our investors and an innovative and active market participant," stated Doug Tiesi. "This rebranding is the next logical step in our firm's development."
