CBRE has appointed senior Goldman Sachs real estate investment banker Paul Ryan to further the growth of its capital advisors investment banking business in Australia and New Zealand.
Ryan brings nearly two decades of investment banking experience during which he has advised on over $75 billion in transactions.
In his new Sydney-based role, he will work closely with Stuart McCann, the head of capital advisors – Pacific and Southeast Asia (SEA), to further support the growth of CBRE’s capital raising and corporate advisory and M&A services for clients in the Pacific region.
Through its Singapore-based capital advisors team, CBRE has raised over $4.2 billion in equity to facilitate $9 billion in Australian transactions across multiple sectors since 2021, said Flint Davidson, CBRE’s Pacific head of capital markets,
“Having Paul based in Sydney will allow us to build on that momentum as our clients increasingly look to us to not only provide real estate expertise but capital raising and corporate advisory services.”
Ryan said he was looking forward to utilising his real estate investment banking experience to provide a differentiated offering for CBRE’s clients across Asia Pacific.
“Real estate markets have entered a new era with significant variability in the underlying drivers and expected returns across traditional and alternate real estate sub-sectors. Against this backdrop, a nuanced and flexible approach considering real-time data to provide the right advice to clients has never been more important,” he said.
McCann said, “Our capital advisors teams in the US, EMEA and Asia Pacific have been increasingly active, and we see considerable potential to further expand into this space in Australia and New Zealand harnessing Paul’s skills and financing networks”.
