Real Estate Leadership Moves

Harrison Street has appointed Michael Humphrey as co-head of Asia fundraising, tasking him with opening a Singapore office while coordinating teams across existing locations in Tokyo and Seoul. Meanwhile, Mubadala named Nordell as infrastructure head, replacing Saed Arar who spent two decades at the UAE sovereign wealth fund, with the transition effective at the start of May.
