AMP Capital expands global listed real estate team

AMP Capital has appointed Hideharu Ichii as a portfolio manager/analyst within its global listed real estate (GLRE) team.

Ichii's appointment, along with fellow new recruit, Anika Minocha, brings the total GLRE team to 14.

Ichii, who will be based in AMP Capital's Hong Kong office, previously worked as a senior portfolio manager at APG Asset Management Asia for seven years, primarily covering Japan and Australia within the firm's listed real estate Asia Pacific team. Before this, he held portfolio management and research roles at CBRE Global Real Estate Securities and Taiyo Pacific Partners, as well as corporate finance and equity sales roles at Nikko Securities.

AMP Capital's head of global listed real estate, James Maydew, said of the new appointees: "As part of our commitment to continuous improvement and a high performance-led culture I'm pleased to welcome such a highly experienced and respected investor to the team. [Hideharu] will bring valuable expertise in the allocation of capital within the Japanese market and, along with Anika, will provide an essential contribution to the broader GLRE team."
