Nordic property asset manager Newsec is to open a London office to represent the business in the UK following rapid expansion in the region over the last two years.
The UK platform will be led by Richard Angliss, the former head of property and asset management for JLL in EMEA and also previously the deputy manager of JLL’s asset management business in Stockholm.
The company said that the London office will enable it 'to deliver specialist local expertise from its teams across the Nordics and Baltics directly to UK clients'.
Björn Lindeborg, head of Newsec Property Asset Management, said: 'A London presence will allow us to develop a deeper relationship with our clients’ asset management, fund management and development teams, so we can deliver a more tailored service across their Nordic holdings. We will continue to work in tandem with their representatives across the region from our network of Nordic offices, providing specialist on-the-ground advice. This new UK base and the engagement of Richard Angliss with his broad understanding of international client requirements and commitment to industry-leading service development will provide us with a firmer grasp of clients’ business needs and overarching strategy.'
