About Stephen Rich

With over 20 years of experience in Real Estate Capital Markets, Institutional Investments, and REITs across Asia Pacific, Europe, and the Americas, I specialise in connecting high-quality real estate operators with institutional investors. My expertise spans investments across public and private markets, leveraging deep sector knowledge to drive strategic capital allocation. I have led significant capital-raising transactions and market expansion projects, including GLP’s European market entry (Gazeley acquisition), Japan and China-focused Asian fund formations, Australian multi-family capitalisation (Novus), and franchise-building real estate securities (REIT) investment recommendations. My industry experience covers traditional and alternative real estate sectors, structured through joint ventures, clubs, funds, and real estate operating company investments. With extensive background in leading REIT research teams at top tier Investment Banks, I analyse emerging investment themes and align opportunities with investor needs. Currently based in Sydney, I draw upon extensive global experience and networks across Asia Pacific, Europe, and the Americas, helping real estate businesses access the right capital to scale and succeed in dynamic market conditions.
