Ares Management Corporation announced today that Philip Moore, Alessandro Luca and Anisa Dudhia have joined Ares to expand its real estate debt presence in Europe. These additions reflect a natural evolution of the Ares Real Estate Group’s 25-year track record in European real estate equity investing and its 10-year track record in U.S. real estate debt. The team expects to continue adding additional professionals in the near-term.
The team focuses on originating and managing commercial real estate loans through its extensive regional networks of owner-operators, sponsors and intermediaries. The team targets loan originations for institutional quality Western European real estate properties, including residential, industrial, office, hospitality, mixed-use and retail. Working collaboratively across the firm, the team leverages Ares’ European real estate equity, European corporate direct lending and U.S. real estate debt platforms to access proprietary relationships, market intelligence and transaction opportunities.
The team provides a range of creative and flexible financing solutions across the capital structure of its borrowers to seek to drive attractive risk-adjusted returns for investors. The team has already completed its first loan, providing €113 million in acquisition financing for a landmark office complex in Belgium through a fund managed by the Ares Real Estate Group.
