Analysts focused on asset management will work on post-acquisition transactions including restructurings/recapitalizations, refinancings, dispositions (public IPOs and private market sales), as well as the strategy and execution of value enhancement projects, including lease and management negotiations, capital expenditure execution, and platform company strategy and direction.
