Peachtree Group Expands Insurance Partnerships, Strengthening Access to Lower-Cost Capital

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Peachtree Group (“Peachtree”), a leading private credit and real estate investment firm, has closed more than $2.5 billion in co-originated loans with insurance company partners since inception, enhancing its access to stable, long-term capital and further reducing its cost of funds.

The milestone underscores Peachtree’s evolution beyond its reputation as a higher-yield bridge lender, positioning the firm as a diversified capital provider capable of offering competitive financing solutions across the credit spectrum.

“Our business has always been about flexibility and meeting borrowers where they are in the cycle,” said Greg Friedman, managing principal and CEO of Peachtree. “While we’re known for delivering speed and certainty in lending, our insurance company partnerships expand our lending capacity and allow us to provide capital at a much lower cost, giving borrowers more options and creating a more efficient platform.”

With 11 relationships already established and additional insurance company partnerships in development, Peachtree is blending traditional private credit execution with the stability and cost advantages of institutional balance sheet capital.

“These partnerships expand our reach,” said Jeremy Stoler, executive vice president, debt capital markets of Peachtree. “They allow us to serve sponsors who may not have previously considered us for longer-term or lower-leverage opportunities. It’s a natural extension of what we do best: structure, underwrite and service credit investments with institutional discipline.”

The addition of insurance company partnerships enhances the firm’s ability to offer borrowers a full suite of capital solutions while maintaining full control of origination, underwriting and servicing.

Peachtree’s private credit platform has originated more than $2.6 billion year-to-date. Recognized by the Mortgage Bankers Association as the seventh-largest investor-driven commercial real estate lender in the U.S., the firm provides a full spectrum of capital solutions, including permanent, bridge, mezzanine, CPACE and Triple Net Lease (NNN) financing, along with preferred equity investments.
