Investec appoints Jane Niles to head of real estate offshore

Investec has appointed Jane Niles as head of real estate offshore, within its corporate and family office team in the Channel Islands, as it looks to capitalize on the continued appeal of real estate investment opportunities in both the United Kingdom and offshore.

In her new role, Niles, who joined Investec in 2016, will oversee a 15-strong team of experienced real estate and corporate lenders based within Guernsey and Jersey. Investec Bank Channel Islands has provided senior development and investment real estate finance into the Channel Islands and the United Kingdom, both in the commercial and residential sectors via its offshore team.

Niles was previously head of corporate and family office, Guernsey, at Investec Bank (Channel Islands) Ltd., where she focused on real estate lending for family-office clients structured via offshore trusts.
