Sam Sidhu joined the board of Customers Bancorp in 2012 and became a fulltime officer of the Bank early in 2020. Shortly after joining the company’s leadership team, the world and nation were rocked by the explosion of the COVID-19 pandemic. While Customers Bank was very successful using its Single Point of Contact model to deliver PPP Loans to its existing business clients, Sam Sidhu recognized the service delivery model would not scale sufficient to the needs of the national crisis. By the end of July 2020, Customers Bank, under Sam Sidhu’s leadership, issued more than 100,000 PPP Loans with an aggregate value of more than $5.4 billion, making the Bank the 5th highest lender by loan number in the nation. Prior to joining Customers Bank fulltime, Sam Sidhu was the founder and CEO of Megalith Capital Management, a real estate focused private equity firm making investments primarily in New York City. Prior to co-founding Megalith, he worked in private equity with Providence Equity Partners and investment banking with Goldman Sachs. Sidhu holds a BA from the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania and an MBA from the Harvard Business School.
