Executive to oversee company's investor relations activities
Sachem Capital, a company specializing in originating mortgage loans secured by first mortgage liens on real property, has announced the appointment of William Haydon as chief investment officer and director of investor relations.
In this role, Haydon will oversee the firm’s liquid reserves and securities portfolio and its underwriting. He will also spearhead investor relations activities. The 25-year industry leader brings a wealth of experience in lending and securities asset management, financial strategy and long-term planning.
“Given our rapid growth, as well as the expansion of our balance sheet and lending activities, I am pleased to welcome Bill to the senior management team,” said Sachem Capital CEO John Villano. “In addition, he is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to the capital markets, and we look forward to his efforts to help broaden our investor relations activities to increase awareness for the company.”
Prior to Sachem, he spent a decade at Wells Fargo Advisors Financial Network as a portfolio manager and branch manager. He also previously served as vice president within the wealth management division of UBS Financial Services from 2008 to 2011 and was managing director of Northern Mortgage Company before it was merged into a division of Indy Mac Bank in 2006.
“I am excited to join Sachem in this new role as CIO of the company. Sachem had been a client of mine for many years, where I managed the company’s outside investments. During this time, I witnessed Sachem’s impressive growth. Given the expansion of the company’s loan portfolio, it was a natural next step to bring this function in house, where I will also help oversee the underwriting team,” Haydon said. “At the same time, I look forward to leveraging my industry contacts to help increase awareness within the investment community. I could not be more thrilled to continue my work with the company in this new role and look forward to helping ensure Sachem’s continued success.”
