Catella appoints trio to Swedish advisory services

Stockholm-based Catella has appointed Britt-Marie Nyman and Rasmus Groth to its property advisory services in Stockholm as senior project managers from the beginning of October and November, respectively.

In addition, Julia Baehrendtz has been employed as an analyst in Stockholm.

'Britt-Marie and Rasmus have extensive experience of both the property business and capital markets, and will be an important part of our Swedish team. Catella's market leadership is based on more than 25 years of experience in advising on property transactions and on exactly this combined knowledge of both property and finance,' says Johan Ericsson, Head of Swedish Property Advisory Services.

Britt-Marie Nyman will be a senior project manager at Catella and takes up her post on October 1. She was previously Deputy CEO, Finance and IR Manager at Klövern and before that held a similar position at Tornet. Britt-Marie has also been a financial journalist for publications including Veckans Affärer.

Rasmus Groth will be a senior project manager at Catella and takes up his post on November 3. Rasmus joins from the Scandinavian Property Group in Stockholm, where he worked as a project manager.

Julia Baehrendtz took up her post as an analyst at Catella on September 1. Julia joins the Stockholm office from London, where she worked for Strutt & Parker and completed her bachelor's degree in property finance at the Cass Business School in London.

The appointments follow the news earlier this month that Cushman & Wakefield has poached seven partners from Catella's Swedish capital markets team to bolster its own presence in Sweden and the Nordic region.

Catella's directors Anders Nordvall, Thomas Persson, Niklas Zuckerman, Per Hagman, Daniel Anderbring, Ola Jacobsson and Erik Dansbo will join the C&W business at partner-level.

Catella’s property advisory services comprise three service areas: sales and acquisitions, financing, as well as analysis and evaluation. The business is established in 11 European countries and has more than 200 employees, including 40 in Sweden.
