Savills Investment Management (“Savills IM”), the international real estate investment manager, has hired Patrick Au Yeung to take a senior role in growing its European Living platform. 

Savills IM has a clear commitment to expand its expertise and product offering in the wider Residential sector across Europe and has secured significant seed capital to achieve this. Patrick’s arrival is a key part of this strategy, and he will work closely with Jon Crossfield, Head of Living in Europe, to advise clients and create a range of products across the sector.  Patrick will be based in Savills IM’s expanding Amsterdam office. 

Patrick has over 20 years’ experience in Real Estate investment management, most recently being the Fund Manager of a €1bn+ European Core Residential fund at Catella. Prior to 2019, he was a Senior Investment & Portfolio Manager of International Real Estate for the Dutch insurer, Syntrus Achmea and from 1998 to 2011 held various positions at ING Real Estate Investment Management.

 

Patrick Au Yeung, Senior Fund Manager, European Living, Savills Investment Management, commented:

Savills IM is a growing €26bn AUM manager with an extensive platform across Europe and strong track record across the sectors.  I’m excited by the huge opportunity to grow its Residential offering and their commitment and ambition to become a leading Manager in the sector.  I look forward to working closely with colleagues across Europe to further develop Savills IM’s residential proposition in the region and continue to serve investors’ needs.

Jon Crossfield, Executive Director & Head of Living, Savills Investment Management, added:

We are thrilled to welcome Patrick to the team. He brings a wealth of experience in transactions, financing and fund management in the European markets which will prove invaluable as we continue to drive the growth of our product offering and quality of advice in the sector. His hire complements the arrival of Adam Alari, who recently joined Savills IM as Head of Living Research & Strategy and will be followed by a number of other exciting individual and corporate initiatives to be announced in the coming months.
