Managers

Wilson Lamont will step back in January after a 25-year tenure spanning Ares and the real estate business acquired by the US manager in 2013.

Norway’s sovereign wealth fund manager, a shareholder in both companies, said it understood ‘the strategic rationale for a combination’ between Prologis and Segro.

Around 18 months after ending its US multifamily program and refocusing on the industrial sector, the manager’s real estate arm is preparing a fresh diversification push.

Joseph Ghazal has left the warehouse giant after 25 years for a newly created role at Tishman focused on expanding the firm’s business in the Middle East and India.

The New York-based manager’s latest property vehicle has already surpassed the size of its predecessor, which it closed two years ago.

The world’s leading private real estate capital markets business intelligence provider has combined its equity, credit and deals offerings to make a single, comprehensive service.

In its latest sector outlook, the manager said a key consideration for an asset is its capacity to host ‘the tenants of the future.’

The London-based manager has hired Tyler Rothenberg as a managing director on its US team, which has nearly doubled in headcount since 2024.

The move to partner with Stanhope comes as the sovereign wealth fund aims to boost returns by working with sector specialists.

Despite the executive’s experience with building a private funds platform, he will not lead that effort at his future firm.
