In particular, Stephen’s recent focus on and knowledge of operational strategies, which is one of our key areas of strong expertise at Schroders Capital, will further strengthen our ability to advise our clients on suitable investment strategies in the current market circumstances.’
Miles added: ‘I am very pleased to be joining Schroders Capital at such an interesting time in the evolution of the real estate market. In this post-pandemic environment, Schroders Capital’s hospitality-focused approach to operational real estate is very important to capital providers.’
