Josh Rubinger is the new senior vice president of national accounts at Peachtree Group’s broker-dealer affiliate, Peachtree PC Investors. He will oversee broker-dealer and registered investment advisor relationships, drive business development, and support the distribution of the firm’s investment offerings, Peachtree said in a statement.

Atlanta-based Peachtree Group is led by Greg Friedman, managing principal and CEO; Jatin Desai, managing principal and CFO; and Mitul Patel, principal.


“This strategic hire underscores our focus on growth and strengthening Peachtree’s position as a trusted partner within the investment community,” said Brian Cho, PPCI’s president. “Josh’s extensive experience and strong network of relationships with broker-dealers and RIAs position him as a key asset to our team. His expertise will be instrumental in shaping our selling group and broadening our market reach.”

Before joining PPCI, Rubinger was senior vice president and head of national accounts at Ashford Securities, a broker-dealer owned by Ashford Inc., an alternative asset manager focused on real estate and hospitality.

Before Ashford, Rubinger was senior vice president of national accounts at Lightstone Capital Markets, the capital markets division of The Lightstone Group. He also served as vice president and East Coast national accounts manager at Thompson National Properties LLC.

Earlier in his career, he held roles at Oppenheimer Funds and Columbia Funds, the statement said.

Peachtree exceeded $1 billion in commercial property assessed clean energy financing, completing 22 transactions nationwide in 2024 and setting a new record for originations.

In October, Peachtree appointed Brent LeBlanc as executive vice president of business development to expand its investment platforms by driving growth, fostering innovation, and collaborating with investment teams to capture new opportunities.
