Investor Eurazeo Patrimoine has appointed former LaSalle and Franklin Templeton director Riccardo Abello as managing director in its London office.
Abello is being brought in to bolster the Paris-listed company’s coverage of the UK real estate markets, following its acquisition of the 194,000 sq ft Johnson Estate and 119,000 sq ft Euston House.
Renaud Haberkorn, managing partner at Eurazeo and head of Eurazeo Patrimoine, said the company would “carry on focusing on high-potential segments driven by macro trends or cycles, expecting to repeat the success enjoyed over previous years, in the UK and the European markets”.
He added: “Riccardo is going to strongly strengthen our team’s capabilities as we continue to invest in companies that hold or manage real assets, adopting an opportunity-centered strategy in the main European markets and in the UK.”
