Hatfield Philips’ UK head of primary and special servicing has left the company to join investor LRC group.
Matt Grefsheim is understood to have left the firm this week to join the distressed debt investor behind the purchase of the Royal Mint Court loan.
Grefsheim had been with Hatfield Philips for over eight years, joining from Morgan Stanley’s in-house servicing team.
At the US investment bank, he rose to become a director, responsible for both commercial and residential loan servicing in Europe.
LRC Group has over €1bn (£781m) in distressed investments across Europe, with the majority on German assets.
The purchase of the £69m loan on the Royal Mint Court office block in EC3 was their most notable in the UK.
The company is now working with developer Delancey to refurbish the largely vacant five-acre site in order to attract longer-term tenants.
