Andreas Köttering will serve as partner and head of infrastructure for Europe and be responsible for building a team in London to originate, execute and manage private European infrastructure investments for CBRE Caledon.

'Andreas is a well-respected leader and infrastructure investor, and we are delighted that he is taking on this significant role and leveraging his talent and expertise to build our London office and broaden our investment capabilities in Europe,' said Stephen Dowd, principal, CBRE Caledon.

'Europe has long been one of the most important markets for infrastructure investments, and CBRE Caledon has been an active participant in the European private infrastructure market since 2010. We believe that establishing a London office will enhance our ability to originate and execute on investment opportunities and manage our existing portfolio in Europe to continue to generate strong long-term performance for our clients.'

CBRE Group acquired a majority stake in Caledon Capital Management in June 2017, changing its name to CBRE Caledon Capital Management. The firm operates as a seperate business unit under CBRE's independently operated investment management subsidiary, CBRE Global Investors.

Köttering has more than 20 years’ experience in infrastructure. Prior to joining CBRE Caledon, he served as the co-head of infrastructure-Europe for GIC. He also previously held senior infrastructure roles with the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, Citi, Schroders and Siemens.
