Dan Chapa was named EVP and chief credit officer at Alpine Capital. He is responsible for the administration and oversight of all credit-related functions of the company including underwriting, portfolio management and directing new business origination.

Chapa brings more than 30 years of financial services experience with a significant background in commercial, asset-based lending, healthcare finance, corporate finance and real estate lending. He will be based in New York.

He recently served as the CEO of Healthcare Finance Group (HFG) where he led the growth of the loan portfolio from $300 million to more than $1.2 billion with no credit losses, improved client satisfaction, and achieved double-digit annual income growth. Prior to joining HFG, he spent much of his career with Bank of America where he rose to be president of Bank of America Business Credit, responsible for all the company’s asset-based lending operations in the US, Canada, and Europe.

“We’re thrilled to welcome Dan to the team,” said Al Regdos, CEO of Alpine Capital. “Alpine has a growing portfolio of healthcare clients, and the addition of Dan not only expands our healthcare expertise, but also helps expand Alpine’s national presence.”

Alpine Capital is a specialty lender dedicated to providing secured debt financing to middle-market companies, particularly those that operate within the healthcare industry.
