Akin preferred equity & hybrid capital partner Alex Cushman has been named to Private Debt Investor’s (PDI’s) Rising Stars of Private Debt list for 2024, in the Lawyer category.

This list honors the rising stars who are “playing a role in shaping the future of the asset class.” PDI selects the honorees based on three criteria, including: evidence of leadership and innovation; the caliber of the firms/clients worked with and any deals they have generated; and whether they possess an ‘X factor’ that marks them as a future leader in private debt.

Alex’ profile in PDI’s “Future of Private Debt report”  highlights his role as an emerging leader within the preferred equity & hybrid capital team and also outlines one of Alex’s most notable transactions – advising General Atlantic as the lead investor in a $425 million preferred equity investment in Buyers Edge Platform (learn more about this transaction here).
