SANNE has opened a new office in Tokyo, Japan.
SANNE’s Tokyo office was operational from the start of this year and will initially focus on servicing existing real estate clients in the region while continuing to offer core services for alternative asset managers.
According to SANNE, the opening of this new office expands SANNE’s strong network of offices across the Asia Pacific region and adds further capability and scope to the services SANNE can offer its clients.
SANNE first established a presence in Asia in 2010 when it opened offices in Shanghai and Hong Kong, further opening a Singapore office in 2014.
SANNE has also appointed Mark Bennett as country head of SANNE’s Japanese business.
Mark Law, managing director of the Asia Pacific and Mauritius at SANNE, said: “We are delighted to establish a new presence in an exciting market like Japan. This is in direct response to client demand and will serve to further add to our already well-established Asian office network and market expertise.”
He added: “As an important global financial centre for alternative assets, our new office will be key to servicing our global and local institutional asset management client base.”
“I am also delighted to see Mark Bennett join SANNE as country head of SANNE’s Japanese business. Mark Bennett brings a huge wealth of talent, experience and expertise in the institutional asset management space both in Japan and across the region.”
Commenting on his new role, Bennett said: “Joining SANNE and heading up its new Japanese office is an exciting opportunity.”
He added: “SANNE has been on a very strong path of continued growth over the past few years and establishing a foothold in Japan further reinforces our continuing growth aspirations. I look forward to working with my new colleagues in Tokyo and wider colleagues across SANNE.”
