Natixis Corporate & Investment Banking has announced the expansion of its Real Estate & Hospitality (REH) Americas team with new appointments. Christopher LaBianca has been appointed as managing director and head of conduit origination in New York, while David Kadin will join as managing director and senior originator for the Los Angeles office.
These appointments come after Priscilla Torres was named head of REH Americas in June 2022, followed by Julie Han as head of underwriting and David Schwartz as head of portfolio lending. In April 2023, Chuck Lee was hired to lead CMBS operations in the region.
According to Torres, who joined Natixis CIB earlier this year, these additions bring a wealth of experience and expertise that will benefit both large corporations and middle market clients seeking innovative capital markets solutions. The focus on expanding their presence in CMBS is part of their overall strategy for growth.
