Tiger adds dynamic banking professional with robust network to its business development team focused on New York City and Boston

NEW YORK – July 7, 2025 — Mitch Rubin, a banking professional with 18 years of experience in asset-based lending, has joined Tiger Group as a business development Managing Director.

The Westchester, New York-based executive will leverage his extensive private equity and banking industry contacts to source opportunities in the metro New York and Boston markets. His business-development efforts will add to those of longtime Tiger Valuation Services Managing Director Fred Raccosta. 

Rubin brings nearly two decades of experience on the banking side of the ABL industry, noted Tiger Group Chief Operating Officer Ryan Davis. “Mitch is a dynamic person—high-energy, hardworking and entrepreneurial,” the COO said. “He has a talent for forging long-lasting client relationships and the creativity needed to solve complex client problems. I’m very excited to welcome Mitch to our team.”

A New York native, Rubin most recently served as a Senior Vice President of ABL originations for U.S. Bank, which he joined in November 2021. In that role, he targeted sole lender and syndicated opportunities for middle-market companies and private-equity sponsors in the Northeast. He also served for eight years at PNC Business Credit, where he sourced, originated and structured private equity-sponsored ABL and cash-flow transactions in the Northeast. Previously, he worked for six years as a client relationship manager for Wells Fargo Capital Finance.

Named one of SFNet’s “40 Under 40” in 2023, Rubin has worked from early in his career on ABL projects with the largest appraisal and disposition firms in the industry, Tiger included. He was just 22 when he first met Raccosta, who was then working as a banker and asset-based lender for the likes of CIT Group and Bank of America. “I have known Fred the entirety of my career,” said Rubin, who earned a business administration and finance degree from SUNY Binghamton. “So it’s amazing to now join him in a legacy position at Tiger Valuation Services.”

Today’s rapidly evolving market, Rubin noted, is characterized by a significant shift toward private credit and more flexible loan terms and structures. “Tiger has responded to volatility and uncertainty by expanding its service offering for clients in creative and holistic ways, from inventory analytics to the launch of a field examinations team,” Rubin said. “I see it as the perfect time to pivot within the ABL industry and join a dynamic, rapidly growing firm like Tiger. It’s an incredible opportunity, and I can’t wait to get started.”
