While Hines has worked with institutional investors in Europe for decades, this latest push will bring access to Hines-sponsored solutions to individual investors in the region for the first time. To spearhead the effort, Hines has appointed Eugenio Cicconetti, previously the Head of the Global Financial Client Group at Schroders, to serve as the European Head of Hines PWS.
With 20 years of experience addressing complex investor needs through tailored strategies, London-based Cicconetti has the ideal background to lead the platform’s European expansion efforts on the ground. He will be responsible for cultivating and strengthening the firm’s relationships with high-net-worth clients, family offices, and private banks while providing customized investment solutions that combine global real estate expertise with the potential for long-term value. Cicconetti will report to Paul Ferraro, Global Head of Hines PWS.
