Nuveen, an asset manager overseeing investments across real estate, private credit, farmland, private equity and forestry, is to open a new office in Copenhagen to facilitate future growth in Northern Europe.

The office opening comes as a direct consequence of increased business volumes in the region and will ensure Nuveen has proximity to both present and future clients in the region.
 
The office is situated in Hellerup, close to Copenhagen, and will serve as the main hub for all advisory services activities across the Nordics and the Benelux region. The office is led by Per Frederiksen, Head of Continental Europe, Advisory Services for Nuveen. It has six full-time employees and is expected to grow further.
 
The new Copenhagen office complements the existing investment presence for Nuveen’s real estate activities, which are led from the firm’s offices in Stockholm and Helsinki, supporting investment activities across the Nordic region. Since 2017 Nuveen has seen business inflows grow by more than 50 per cent in the Nordics and Benelux.
 
Frederiksen comments: “Over the years we have expanded our business in this region based on core values like credibility, trust and transparency.
 
“Servicing and developing client relationships further is not something which can be done effectively without being even closer to the market in which we operate.”
