Client focus. Presidio is a unique real estate investment bank: we are solely dedicated to providing capital raising and advisory services to clients in the real estate industry. At the core of Presidio's philosophy is the belief that raising capital requires intense focus. Therefore, Presidio limits its efforts to no more than a handful of active assignments at any given time. We excel in developing creative solutions to meet capital raising requirements and performing strategic assessments of products, markets and prospective investors. As a private company, we offer unmatched flexibility to structure engagements that meet our clients' objectives.
Investor relationships. Presidio's practice is defined by our principals' strong relationships with public and corporate pension funds, endowments, foundations, insurance companies and institutions focused on retail investors. We leverage these relationships to raise capital for our clients – our success is evidenced by our track record. Since Presidio commenced operations in June 2003, our principals have raised over $11 billion in equity on behalf of clients.
Depth and breadth of experience. Our ability to develop innovative solutions is supported by the depth of our team's experience in capital raising and real estate and our diversity of complementary skills and backgrounds. Our principals average 20 years of experience in corporate finance, real estate portfolio management, mergers and acquisitions, accounting and marketing. Our team members have worked with top-tier investment banking and real estate investment firms, including Banc of America Securities, GE Capital Investment Advisors, JPMorgan Institutional Investments, LaSalle Investment Management, Lehman Brothers, Lincoln Property Company and Merrill Lynch.
