LaSalle Global Partner Solutions (“GPS”) is a new vertical in the LaSalle Investment Management organization that manages c. US$10 bn in client capital and invests with local operating partners and managers across the world. GPS investments span the risk spectrum and are implemented through fund investments, co-investments, joint-ventures and separate accounts. GPS has a global team of 33 employees based in the Chicago, New York, London and Singapore offices and is supported by LaSalle’s extensive regional and global specialists covering Research & Strategy, Legal, HR, Accounting & Finance, Tax, and Investor Relations.
GPS takes a fundamental approach to investment and a relative value approach to global portfolio construction. As a long-term investor, thematic trends are also a focal point.
