Deutsche Hypothekenbank has appointed Alexander Firshing as head of its new office in Berlin.
The Kurfürstendamm premises represent the bank's sixth office in Germany after Hanover, Dusseldorf, Frankfurt, Hamburg and Munich.
'By recruiting Firsching, we have gained an extremely experienced acquirer who is very well connected, particularly in the Berlin market. He will inject fresh momentum into our efforts to generate new business and play an important role in helping us achieve our new business targets in future as well,' commented Andreas Pohl, chairman of the board of managing directors of Deutsche Hypo.
Firsching was head of real estate financing for Germany at SEB before joining Deutsche Hypo. Other employers have included SveaImmobilien in Berlin, HSH Nordbank AG in Hamburg and Stockholm, and CBRE in Stockholm.
'Our new branch will make it easier for us to step up contact with our clients in Berlin and the surrounding area, and to attract new clients for Deutsche Hypo. We are delighted to have established a presence right in the heart of Berlin with our offices in the Kranzler Eck,' concluded Pohl.
