A corporate client was looking to tap into the Asian public markets for investment in the U.S. real estate market and came to us because of our top-tier public REIT experience.
Responsively coordinating tasks, negotiations and schedules in North America and Asia, we put the real estate acquisitions and U.S. structure in place, factoring in complex tax-efficiency considerations and listing on the Singapore stock exchange, with close to $1 billion at stake.
Thanks to our work, the client became the first pure-play U.S. office REIT listed on an Asian exchange. We have assisted the client with subsequent acquisitions in realizing its vision to acquire trophy office buildings in major metropolitan areas across the U.S.
