Dexus opens Singapore office and appoints Head of Distribution, Asia
Dexus today announced the opening of a new office in Singapore and appointment of Brian (Pyeongwoon) Kwon as Head of Distribution, Asia.
The Singapore office will support the growth of Dexus’s funds business and its expanding relationships across the region in an environment where Australasian real asset investments continue to be attractive to international capital partners.
Dexus CEO Darren Steinberg said: “Having a permanent presence in Singapore will help us grow and manage our client relationships in Asia more effectively. This is an important step as we look to expand our investor footprint across Asia in the real asset sector.”
Executive General Manger Funds Management Deborah Coakley said: “The appointment of Brian as a dedicated Asia-focused and Asia-based executive enhances our capability to better service our existing and future Asia-based clients.
“Brian is fluent in both Korean and English and has strong relationships in the region, with a track record of securing equity for a diverse range of funds.
“His appointment will support our existing clients, including investors in the Community Infrastructure Fund (CommIF) which will transfer to Dexus as part of the Collimate Capital transaction.”
Previously based in Seoul, Korea, Mr Kwon was a Senior Coverage Specialist at DWS Korea, a Director at Natixis Investment Managers, Global Alternative Investment Team Vice President at Hanwha Asset Management and Senior Manager Asset Management at Macquarie.
