As Asia Pacific Co-Heads and Co-CIOs, Nick and Steve are responsible for charting the vision and strategy for LaSalle’s business in the region and for stewarding investment performance for LaSalle’s clients.

As part of this leadership transition, Keith Fujii will assume the role of Chairman of Asia Pacific, also effective July 1, 2025, and retain his position as Chairperson of the Asia Pacific Investment Committee. Since joining LaSalle as CEO of Japan in 2018 and through his appointment as Head of Asia Pacific in 2021, Keith has been a key figure and a respected leader in the firm. In his capacity as Chairman, Keith will oversee the growth and stability of LaSalle’s Asia Pacific platform, collaborating closely with the leadership team to realize the firm’s ambitions in the region.

Claire Tang will depart LaSalle at the end of February 2025 and step down from her roles as Asia Pacific Co-CIO and Head of Greater China to pursue other opportunities. Since joining LaSalle in 2007, Claire has been instrumental in the growth of LaSalle’s Asia Pacific platform and was central to the teams that developed and executed new investment strategies as well as successfully raised capital for the region. She did so while always leading with positivity and an entrepreneurial spirit.

Mark Gabbay, Global CEO commented: “The appointment of Nick and Steve as Co-Heads of Asia Pacific represents a significant milestone in their successful careers. The next chapter for our Asia Pacific platform will require a growth mindset and an innovative approach to investing, qualities which both Nick and Steve have amply demonstrated and will bring to their new roles. At the same time, I am pleased that Keith has accepted his appointment as Asia Pacific Chairman, providing continued leadership and guidance as we continue to execute our investment strategies in the region. We are grateful to Claire for her dedication and service and wish her all the best in the future.

Mark Gabbay continued: “The new appointments are a reflection of the strong bench of talented leaders as well as the robust succession plans that are in place at LaSalle. LaSalle remains committed to Asia Pacific, a region in which the firm is well-established, with a successful track record it is focused on extending.”

Andrew Jeanes, who worked for LaSalle for almost 38 years, sadly passed away in October 2021.

For those people within the industry who came across Andy, none would have forgotten their experience in a hurry. He didn’t suffer fools lightly, and could often be perceived as donning a bear mask. It truly was just a mask, behind which was a man with a huge heart. He held in high esteem individuals at the cutting edge of their expertise within the property industry and those who provided sound advice to Andy and his clients.

LaSalle is hosting a walk through London on Thursday, July 13 from 2:00 p.m. and would welcome any of Andy’s friends or ex-colleagues to join us. In his memory, we aim to raise money for the Oxford Hospitals Charity, specifically the Oncology Ward Fund, as chosen by his children.

Given Andy liked to discuss thorny property issues over a glass of red wine, it’s only fitting that the walk should include a couple of his old haunts. We start from Davy’s at Plantation Place in The City and finish at Davy’s at St James, Crown Passage, Pall Mall. Frankly that’s the only type of walk Andy would have signed up to!

If you would like to take part in the walk, please register below. A suggested minimum donation of £20 upon registration can be made via our JustGiving page.

For LaSalle Investment Management, co-investment is key to attracting and retaining employees and to aligning employees with clients’ interests and the firm’s culture. Once limited to select senior executives, opening up co-investment participation to a 950-strong workforce located globally across 23 offices has been a complex operational undertaking.

TOKYO (March 8, 2023) — LaSalle Investment Management (“LaSalle”) announces today two significant appointments. Kunihiko (Nick) Okumura will succeed Keith Fujii as Chief Executive Officer of LaSalle Japan and will concurrently be appointed as Representative Director of LaSalle Japan. Meanwhile, Itaru Nogami will succeed Ryota Morioka as Fund Manager of LaSalle Japan Property Fund (LJPF), an open-ended core fund with total assets under management of more than JPY200 billion GAV (US$1.54 billion). Both appointments will be effective March 31.

Consequently, Fujii will continue to serve LaSalle as Head of Asia Pacific while Morioka will depart the firm to pursue other interests. Yasuo Nakashima has also stepped down as Representative Director of LaSalle Japan and will depart the firm on April 1.

Keith Fujii, Head of Asia Pacific for LaSalle, said, “These leadership transitions follow a succession planning process spanning several years, during which we worked to develop a robust talent pipeline. Okumura san’s and Nogami san’s appointments reflect the depth of LaSalle’s bench strength and the firm’s long-term orientation.”

Okumura joined LaSalle Japan in 2011 and served as Head of Acquisitions and Asset Management. He was additionally appointed Co-Chief Investment Officer (Co-CIO) for LaSalle Asia Pacific in 2021. With over 25 years of Japanese real estate experience, Okumura has completed over US$15 billion of debt and equity transactions across multiple asset classes. In his new role as CEO of LaSalle Japan, Okumura will continue to serve as Co-CIO for the Asia Pacific region.

Nogami joined LaSalle as Deputy Fund Manager for LJPF in 2020 and has been involved in all strategic and operational dimensions of the fund, including equity raising, debt financing, investor and lender communications, acquisition, operational management, as well as investor reporting and fund administration. Itaru has over 20 years of experience in Japanese direct real estate investments.

Fujii continued, “Over the 12 years he’s been with LaSalle, Okumura san has been instrumental to the development and execution of our business strategy both in Japan and Asia Pacific. With his blend of acumen, discipline and integrity, Okumura san is well-positioned to lead our Japan business and drive the next phase of its growth. Meanwhile, Nogami san has been a key member of LJPF since he joined LaSalle Japan and, with the guidance of Morioka san, is now primed to extend the excellent track record of the fund. I am grateful to Morioka san for his significant contributions to our business and I am confident we will continue to benefit from the leadership of Okumura san at LaSalle Japan and Nogami san for LJPF.”

Kunihiko (Nick) Okumura, CEO-elect for LaSalle Japan, said, “I am honored to be given the opportunity to lead LaSalle Japan and to build on our excellent foundation which Fujii san had strengthened with his leadership in the past few years. I’m looking forward to continuing to work with my talented colleagues, to achieve strong performance for our investors and also to make LaSalle a great place to work.”

Itaru Nogami, Fund Manager-elect for LJPF, said, “I am delighted to have the opportunity to continue to serve our investors as Fund Manager. I’m looking forward to working with my team to maximize investment returns by expanding our diversified portfolio of high-quality, stable core assets in line with our existing strategy.”

LaSalle Investment Management (“LaSalle”) has announced a series of additions and enhancements to its European Research & Strategy leadership team, reflecting a deepened focus on its key investor products and an emphasis on driving competitive investment performance.

Dan Mahoney succeeds LaSalle’s newly appointed Global Head of Research & Strategy, Brian Klinksiek, as Head of European Research & Strategy, effective 1 January 2023. He brings over 14 years’ experience as a strategist in the firm’s North America Research & Strategy team, where he helped drive investment performance through a range of successful initiatives, including a focus on LaSalle’s US residential strategies. During that time, he acted as the Research & Strategy team’s chief liaison for several clients and funds. In his new role, Dan will relocate to London and focus on further embedding and enhancing the use of proprietary, risk-adjusted frameworks and analytics to drive investment conviction across debt and equity strategies in Europe. He will report to both Brian Klinksiek and Philip La Pierre, Head of Europe.  

As part of this restructuring, Petra Blazkova has been appointed to the newly created role of Head of Research & Strategy, Core & Core-Plus Capital, Europe. Previously Managing Director within LaSalle’s European Research & Strategy team, Petra was responsible for overseeing Continental European market analysis from the London office. In her new capacity, she will relocate to Munich and work closely with David Ironside, fund manager of Encore+, and Uwe Rempis, fund manager of LaSalle E-REGI, as well as the firm’s separate accounts, supporting the funds’ ongoing strategies and development.

Completing these changes, Dominic Silman has been appointed as Head of Research & Strategy, Debt & Value-Add Capital, Europe. Previously Senior Strategist within LaSalle’s European Research & Strategy team, Dominic will continue to be based in the London office and will work directly with Michael Zerda, Head of Debt & Value-Add Strategies, on the firm’s European debt strategies and recently reconstituted value-add platform. In their new roles, Petra and Dominic will report into Dan Mahoney.

Brian Klinksiek, incoming Global Head of Research & Strategy at LaSalle Investment Management, said: “The breadth and depth of our European Research & Strategy team enables LaSalle to drive forward its best-in-class client offering across Europe. These appointments will help maintain that momentum, underpinning our growing and integrated product mix, and ensuring the ongoing success of LaSalle’s commingled funds and separate accounts. I look forward to continuing to work with Dan, Petra and Dom as the European Research & Strategy team goes from strength to strength”.

Philip La Pierre, Head of Europe at LaSalle Investment Management, added: “Dan, Petra and Dom’s collective experience will be key to our in-house market-leading intelligence and the delivery of competitive investment performance across the full spectrum of our products. They will play a vital role in informing investment decisions and portfolio construction, particularly as we continue to diversify our asset allocation, grow our value-add strategies and build upon our well-established debt series.”

LaSalle Investment Management (“LaSalle”) today announced that after 28 years of distinguished service and leadership of the Research & Strategy group at the firm, Jacques Gordon has confirmed he will retire from the business at the end of 2022 in to order pursue interests in higher education. He will remain as the Global Head of Research & Strategy through the remainder of this year, and will be succeeded by Brian Klinksiek, LaSalle’s current Head of European Research & Global Portfolio Strategies, effective 1 January 2023.

Brian Klinsiek and Jacques Gordon

Brian will continue to be based in London and will join LaSalle’s Global Management committee, reporting to CEO Mark Gabbay. Succession for Brian’s Head of European Research & Strategy role is in process and will be announced prior to his transition to global leadership in 2023.

LaSalle Global CEO Mark Gabbay said, “This transition reflects LaSalle’s continued focus on thoughtful leadership succession, offering both continuity along with fresh ideas to be infused across the organization. We are grateful for the numerous contributions Jacques has provided LaSalle and the broader industry over the course of his career, and look forward to recognizing these accomplishments in the months ahead. Brian’s professional experience positions him well to take on this role, having lived, worked, and covered the real estate markets in North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific.”

After joining LaSalle in 2020, Brian led the reorganization of LaSalle’s European Research & Strategy team from a geography-focused model to a more dynamic pan-European sector-focused model. He has deepened the Research & Strategy team’s integration within the firm’s newly formed European Debt & Value-add platform, and also led the creation of LaSalle’s global investment risk management function. Brian has been a leading industry advocate for the incorporation of climate risk analysis into investment-making decisions, and is a champion for diversity in the workplace, having been appointed Chair of LaSalle’s European Culture of Care committee in 2021.

Brian Klinksiek, incoming Global Head of Research & Strategy said, “It is an honor to be named the next leader of LaSalle’s world-class Research & Strategy team. Jacques has done a remarkable job establishing LaSalle’s reputation for timely insights, accurate forecasts, and impactful strategy that is fully integrated with the investment process. He has been a role model for me throughout my career – even before I joined the firm. I am thankful for his guidance and partnership, and look forward to continuing to seek his counsel as he moves into academia.”

Jacques Gordon, retiring Global Head of Research & Strategy said, “I am grateful for the experiences, insights and friendships I’ve gained during my time at LaSalle. Our Global Research & Strategy team is well-positioned to continue to deliver great value to our clients and investment colleagues around the world, and Brian is the right leader to drive the next phase of innovation and growth. I look forward to seeing the firm prosper as I transition to the next chapter of my career.”

LaSalle Investment Management (“LaSalle”) recently announced that it has appointed Simon Howard and Michael Stratton as co-heads of its Australian operations. Their appointments took effect earlier this month, with both reporting to Keith Fujii, Head of Asia Pacific, based in Tokyo.

Simon and Mike joined LaSalle in 2011 with the opening of the firm’s Sydney office. Prior to this appointment, Simon was head of asset management while Michael had been head of acquisitions. They each have over 25 years’ experience across a broad range of asset classes including office, retail, industrial, hotels, retirement villages and residential.

Despite the global pandemic, investment resilience across real estate sectors in the country remains strong, underpinning institutional investor’s appetite for investing in the market. This new structure will enable us to deliver investment strategies and seek new opportunities more effectively and will further strengthen our position in the country.

Keith Fujii, Head of Asia Pacific at LaSalle Investment Management, said: “We see strong interest from institutional investors to seek access and opportunities to invest in Australia and the new structure with Simon and Michael mandated is set to meet investors demands and develop and execute on a strategy to jointly grow our Australian platform. Their diverse set of experiences across industries and strong track record will continue to drive growth for our business in Australia.”

Simon Howard, Co-Head of Australia at LaSalle Investment Management, said: “We are well placed to take advantage of the transition underway in the Australian market as investors assess the opportunities that have opened up since the lockdowns have ended. With hybrid work practices now commonplace, and our commitment to the decarbonisation of the built environment, there is an increasing demand for us to provide incisive and coherent solutions for our investors, tenants and other stakeholders.”

Michael Stratton, Co-Head of Australia at LaSalle Investment Management, said: “ The recent refocussing of global and local investor preferences such as the keen interest evident in the logistics sector plays to the strength and calibre of our Australian executive team based in Sydney. We are committed to identifying and completing significant opportunities in all asset classes that provide attractive risk adjusted returns for investors.”

LaSalle Investment Management (“LaSalle”) is pleased to announce Jennifer Perkins, an industry veteran with more than 25 years of experience, has joined the firm as Managing Director, Defined Contribution Portfolio Manager.

Jennifer spent the previous 25 years at Principal Real Estate Investors, where she most recently served as Senior Director of Defined Contribution Real Estate Solutions. Jennifer will be based in Chicago and report to Alok Gaur, Global Head of Investor Relations. In her new role with LaSalle she will be focused on building a capital raising strategy, managing the fund and executing a growth plan centered around LaSalle’s Defined Contribution (“DC”) product in the U.S.

With Jennifer’s hiring, LaSalle will soon offer a daily valued, private real estate investment product to the DC market. This new initiative will allow DC plans to take advantage of the benefits of adding institutionally managed, core, private real estate to their portfolios, including long-term, stable returns and low correlations to conventional asset classes. The primary focus is for the new product to be included in Target Date or other multi-asset portfolios that are gaining significant assets in the larger, defined contribution plans of public and private US employers.

Alok Gaur, LaSalle Global Head of Investor Relations, said, “The defined contribution market remains under allocated to real estate, with DC plans investing less than a percent of their portfolio into real estate on average. We believe institutional sponsorship of real estate solutions for the DC market has the potential to enhance retirement outcomes for investors. Jennifer’s deep experience and industry-wide relationships, combined with LaSalle’s strong global platform, create a unique opportunity for a product that can provide DC investors the diversified exposure to private real estate they need.”

Jennifer Perkins, the incoming Managing Director, Defined Contribution Portfolio Manager at LaSalle, said, “I am excited to join LaSalle and add to the firm’s track record of forming relationships with and generating returns for institutional investors. The defined contribution market’s size and growth provides ample opportunity to innovate and offer an exceptional product backed by LaSalle’s well-respected track record and brand.”

Amy Klein Aznar will become the Executive Chair of LaSalle’s Debt and Special Situations platform. In her new role, Amy will remain closely involved in investment strategy and decision making, client relationships and communication, and will serve on the Debt and Special Situations Investment Committee. She will also continue to meaningfully co-invest in current and future investment vehicles. Amy’s decision to move to the role of Executive Chair will reduce her day-to-day responsibilities and enable her to devote more time to her family’s business interests.

Amy and Michael worked together from 2009 to 2016 while building the Debt and Special Situations at LaSalle and have a long-term business and working relationship, spanning 17 years. The move comes at a time of significant growth for the platform and continued strong investment performance across its multiple business lines. Since inception, LaSalle’s Debt and Special Situations team has raised nearly €6bn, with the fourth fund in the flagship European real estate mezzanine series, LREDS IV, expected to hold its next closing at c.€900m and is on track to exceed its €1bn fund raise target.

Amy Klein Aznar, the incoming Executive Chair of European Debt & Special Situations at LaSalle, said, “I am thrilled that Michael is returning to the business that we started together over ten years ago. I look forward to working together again with Michael and the existing senior team and to my continuing involvement as Executive Chair of Debt and Special Situations.”

Michael Zerda, the incoming Head of European Debt & Special Situations at LaSalle said, “The growth, scope, and scale of the platform is testament to the quality of the team, its investment discipline, and Amy’s leadership since its inception over ten years ago. I am excited to work with the team to help them deploy existing capital and see terrific opportunities ahead as we grow the special situations and value-add equity strategies.”

Philip La Pierre, Head of and CIO of Europe at LaSalle, said, “We are delighted to welcome Michael back to LaSalle. He will be fully supported by his strong senior leadership team including Richard Craddock as well as the wider European LaSalle Business. The combination of this leadership, and Amy’s continued involvement in the business, is ideal to continue the exciting growth of the platform. Building out special situations and higher-return equity strategies is a natural evolution of the business and we are confident in Michael and Amy’s ability to lead that expansion through their almost two decades of working together across debt and equity.”

LaSalle Investment Management (“LaSalle”) today announced that following a successful 12-year period as CEO for Europe, Simon Marrison will transition to assume a Chairman role for the business. Karen Brennan, Head of Americas Custom Accounts for LaSalle, has been appointed to succeed Mr. Marrison as the firm’s CEO for Europe, effective 30 June 2019. Mr. Marrison will remain in the Chairman advisory role and work closely with Ms. Brennan to ensure a seamless leadership transition.

Under Mr. Marrison’s leadership, LaSalle’s European business has seen significant growth and diversification, doubling its AUM from $10 billion to more than $20 billion during the period.

Mr. Marrison joined LaSalle in 2001 and has operated six funds in the region, launched the Continental European Separate Accounts business as well as the Debt & Special Situations business that now has a flagship fund series, and grown the firm’s pan-European Encore+ fund to a GAV of more than $2 billion.

In her new role, Ms. Brennan will have overall responsibility for LaSalle’s $22 billion AUM pan-European private equity real estate business and will join LaSalle’s nine-person Global Management Committee. She will be based in London and will also oversee the firm’s teams in the U.K., Paris, Munich and Luxembourg, and travel regularly to the markets in which LaSalle operates and invests. Ms. Brennan joined LaSalle in 1999 and has successfully held a variety of leadership, investment, asset and portfolio management roles across the organization.

More recently, she has led LaSalle’s Americas Custom Accounts group, which includes some of the firm’s largest and longest-standing institutional investor clients and has increased its AUM over 30% to nearly $10 billion.

Jeff Jacobson, LaSalle Global CEO, said: “Simon has played a pivotal role in LaSalle’s growth and success in Europe over his decade plus leadership of the business. As he elects to transition from day-to-day management of the business, I am extremely pleased that we have such a strong successor in Karen Brennan and that illustrates our commitment to succession planning and providing career opportunities to our top talent throughout the world. I am confident that Simon’s mentorship and Karen’s proven investment, client and leadership skills will lead LaSalle to continued growth and success in Europe.”

With the business on such firm footing, now is an opportune time for a talented leader with a global perspective to take it to the next level, and I look forward to working closely with Karen in the future to build on our collective momentum.”

Karen Brennan, incoming Europe CEO of LaSalle, added: “It is an honor to be the next leader of our European business, which has experienced significant growth under Simon’s leadership. I am eager to work with the teams across the region to build on the foundation that has been set, as we seek to advance our global position and produce superior investment performance on behalf of our clients.”
