Warburg - Henderson appoints Nikolas Jorzick as Head of Investment Analytics & Product Development
Warburg - Henderson Kapitalanlagegesellschaft für Immobilien mbH, Hamburg is reacting to further increasing demands from the special fund business and has centralised its product development. Under the new name „Investment Analytics & Product Development“ the long standing area of „Forecasting & Strategy“ will be combined with the newly created section „Product Development“. The department will in future focus on developing special funds, which based on changed investor needs, new regulatory requirements and increased competition, will have to be decidedly more customised and flexible. „Institutional investors are clearly willing to allocate more equity into property. The bottle neck are new investment products that provide answers to the new regulatory environment and the changed investor appetite for risk“, says Eitel Coridaß Managing Director and responsible for Portfolio Management at Warburg - Henderson. „As such it is for us of utmost importance to have our own product development department here in Hamburg, which will at an early stage combine the different parameters to provide ideal products“. More than ever institutional investors require custom-fit products that are in line with their investment criteria.
As of 1 December 2011, the department is headed by Nikolas Jorzick (32), who was previously at the helm of the department „Forecasting & Strategy“. The department consists of three staff. Nikolas holds a Diploma of Economics and a property specific MBA. Prior to joining Warburg - Henderson in January 2010 Nikolas worked four years at HSH Real Estate AG as Associate Director in Advisory Services. In his new role he is responsible for product development, strategic and tactical orientation of existing funds as well as performance analysis of all transaction processes.
