Michael Fishman, born in 1966, has a strong background in finance, holding a degree from the Rochester Institute of Technology. He became the Chief Executive Officer of TPG Specialty Lending, Inc. in April 2011 and played a key role in the company until December 2017. Before joining TPG, he spent over two decades in corporate lending. He was notably the Executive Vice President at Wells Fargo Capital Finance, where he helped grow assets under management from $2 billion to over $10 billion from 2000 to 2007. His experience includes significant roles in credit, portfolio management, and loan origination. Michael has also served on various industry boards and contributed to key publications. Even after stepping down, he continued as a director, showing his ongoing commitment to the firm. During his tenure, he did not directly receive a high salary or bonuses, reflecting TPG's unique compensation structure, where executives are financed through management fees instead.
