JLL has reported a 9.9% increase in revenue to $6bn (£4.1bn) for 2015.
It also booked a 9.8% increase in fee revenue to $5.2bn. The results were positive but were surpassed by rival CBRE, which earlier today reported a 20% increase in revenue to $10.9bn and a 14% increase in fee revenue to $7.7bn.
In the fourth quarter, JLL saw fee revenue in EMEA increase by 4% to $492.5m and for the whole of 2015 increase by 7% to $1.4bn.
JLL said EMEA revenue growth was driven by project and development services and capital markets and hotels. By country, Germany, France and the UK led the way.
Colin Dyer, president and chief executive said: “Growth will continue in 2016, driven by the calibre of our people, targeted investments and strategic acquisitions, all combining to expand our services and build the long-term value of our company.”
