CMCT Names Shaul Kuba Chief Investment Officer
20 Mars 2023 - 1:00PM
Business Wire
CMCT (NASDAQ & TASE: CMCT) announced today the appointment
of Shaul Kuba as Chief Investment Officer. Mr. Kuba will direct the
continued expansion of CMCT’s portfolio of highly amenitized,
premier multifamily and creative office assets in dynamic, high
barrier to entry markets.
Recently, CMCT announced that it is acquiring 696 apartment
units across three assets in Los Angeles and the Bay Area. Further,
CMCT has a pipeline of multifamily development opportunities, on
land it owns, representing more than 1,500 units.
As part of CMCT’s strategy, CMCT leverages the global partner
and investor relationships and the development capabilities of CIM
Group, its manager, to execute on CMCT’s pipeline using an
asset-light approach. CMCT raises third party capital on an
asset-level basis, maintains a minority interest and earns a
management fee and a percentage of the profits. CMCT believes this
is a compelling model that is expected to contribute to strong
returns on invested capital. In March, CMCT announced that it
closed a co-investment with three international institutional
investors to convert a prominently located office building in Los
Angeles to multifamily. CMCT will maintain 20% ownership of the
building.
Mr. Kuba is a CMCT board member as well as a co-founder of CIM
Group. He brings his vast experience in creative office,
multifamily and mixed-use investment and development to leading
CMCT’s investment activities and has been instrumental in
sharpening CMCT’s focus on investing in next generation assets
alongside co-investors.
