Hodes Weill makes foray into Asia

Lobo is charged with managing Hodes Weill's business in Asia and Australia, which includes covering its institutional investors and investment and fund managers. He was most recently at LXL Capital Partners, a Hong Kong-based investment and advisory boutique focused on Pan-Asian fundraising and M&A real estate assignments.

Lobo was also a founding partner of Latitude Capital Group, a China-focused investment bank, and has worked at Hamon Investment Group and J.P. Morgan in Hong Kong and New York.

Hodes Weill, headquartered in New York, has additionally announced the launch of its London office. Dominic Field, most recently of Grosvenor, and Eric Lemer, formerly of GI Partners, have been appointed as partners in the new office.

"While institutional allocations to real estate are accelerating, the task of raising capital from institutions remains challenging in today's market," Doug Weill, co-founder and managing partner of Hodes Weill, said of the hires. "The institutions that are allocating capital are more widespread from a geographic perspective and they are increasingly seeking highly customized investment strategies and vehicles. We are committed to expanding our global coverage of the institutional market and look forward to further additions to the team over the coming months."
