Barings Real Estate Advisors has strengthened its European real estate debt platform, hiring Lars Røgeberg and Henry Marlow, while John Bryant Gerber has relocated to the London office from California.
Røgeberg has been appointed as director of asset management for the real estate debt team. He joins from Deutsche Pfandbriefbank, where he was an associate director, and brings 12 years of experience in the real estate sector.
In his new role, he will be involved in portfolio management and will assist in the research, analysis and underwriting of new real estate debt opportunities.
Marlow joins as an analyst in the real estate finance team. Previously, he worked in the banking and capital markets team at Ernst & Young, specialising in the real estate sector.
At Barings, he will be responsible for underwriting and due diligence of new investments, plus the development and maintenance of financial models for underwriting new deals and monitoring performance.
John Bryant Gerber, previously vice president of alternative investments at Barings in Newport Beach, California, is relocating to London to join the European team as vice president of real estate investment.
In his new role, he will be responsible for opening new structured real estate debt investments.
Røgeberg and Marlow will both report to Chris Bates, head of the Barings European debt business.
Bates commented: “The continued build-out of our European debt platform will further enable us to meet both investor and borrower requirements across both senior and structured debt in the European markets.”
Charles Weeks, head of real estate for Europe at Barings Real Estate Advisors, added: “We continue to grow the size and scope of our European real estate investment and asset management platform, with these appointments further underlining the strength of our ambition for Barings Real Estate Advisers in Europe.”
The Barings European debt business was established in September 2013, and is now worth around £1 billion.
