Strutt & Parker and Catella announce international alliance

Strutt & Parker and Catella have signed an international alliance agreement. The
exclusive alliance, a first for both parties, will enable them to provide pan
European transactional and consultancy advice in the office, retail and
industrial markets.
The alliance, which takes immediate effect, will see Catella and Strutt & Parker
come together to utilise their combined strength in Europe’s main business
centres and provide their commercial clients with access to new international
markets.

Through their established track record and understanding of the key property
markets, Strutt & Parker will assist Catella in introducing their clients to new
commercial opportunities in London and across the UK. In turn, Catella’s pan
European organisation will help enhance Strutt & Parker’s international presence
and allow them to identify and explore new property solutions across Europe for
their clients.

Anders Palmgren, Head of Corporate Finance at Catella said: “We are thrilled to
announce this alliance with Strutt & Parker – our cooperation will enable
Catella to better deliver for our clients. It will provide us with wider access
to banks and financial institutions in London, as well as to UK based investors
and those investors using London as a stepping stone for their European
activities.”

Andy Martin, senior partner at Strutt & Parker said: “The alliance with Catella
continues our strategy for expansion through getting closer to the source of
growing international investor interest in the London market. By working with
Catella, who have an in depth understanding of the European investor profile, we
will be able to offer a range of opportunities and solutions to investors keen
to access the UK market.”
