Peachtree Group has acquired more than $330 million in loans year-to-date from U.S. Banking institutions and private lenders, the company announced on April 20, 2026.
The acquisition includes a lender finance transaction secured by portfolios of loans, reflecting growing opportunities as banks reduce exposure to certain commercial and private lending relationships.
Greg Friedman, Managing Principal and CEO of Peachtree Group, stated that the activity demonstrates an increasing opportunity set in the current credit market environment.
The loans were sourced from U.S. Banking institutions and private lenders, positioning Peachtree Group to capitalize on shifts in credit markets where traditional lenders are pulling back from specific sectors.
This development aligns with broader trends in capital markets, particularly in commercial real estate lending, where non-bank lenders are expanding their role amid changing risk appetites among regulated financial institutions.
Peachtree Group, headquartered in Atlanta with additional offices in Austin, operates across investment services, asset management, capital markets, and property management, among other business lines.
The company has not disclosed the specific types of loans acquired or the identities of the selling institutions, focusing instead on the scale of the transaction and its strategic timing.
As of the announcement date, Peachtree Group confirmed that the $330 million in loans was accumulated year-to-date, indicating sustained activity in loan acquisitions during the first four months of 2026.
The move underscores how specialized financial firms are stepping in to fill gaps left by banks adjusting their lending portfolios in response to economic conditions and regulatory considerations.
No further details regarding future loan acquisition targets, expected returns, or specific sectors involved in the purchased loan portfolios were made available in the company’s announcement.
