New CEO Will Partner with Rosenberg on Next Phase of Greystone’s Growth
Greystone has appointed Hafize Gaye Erkan as CEO, effective immediately. Her executive responsibilities will commence in September. Erkan will report to Steve Rosenberg, who will continue to serve as executive chairman.
Erkan most recently served as co-CEO, president and board member at publicly traded First Republic Bank, where she helped deliver substantial growth in wealth management, deposits, and total assets. Before joining First Republic, she was head of financial institutions group analytics and strategies for Goldman Sachs.
Erkan and Rosenberg will partner closely to execute on a two-part joint vision for the next phase of Greystone’s growth. First, they will accelerate Greystone’s core commercial and multifamily real estate lending and capital markets business.
Second, they will expand the business into adjacent financial services, including expanded lending products, and private wealth management, as well as real estate and fintech fund management. They’re also exploring private banking and residential mortgage lending opportunities.
