Stockholm (HedgeNordic) – Schroders Capital has appointed Johan Bråkenhielm as Head of the Nordics for Real Estate. The appointment comes after Eva Granlund, the previous Head of Real Estate Investments in the Nordics, announced that she would be “taking the leap to work for myself with the ambition to realize a few ideas” after six years at Schroders.

At Offentliga Hus, Bråkenhielm oversaw its property portfolio and all transactions, as well as was highly involved in the listing of the company. His extensive real estate experience also encompasses tenures at ING, CBRE Global Investors and Ernst & Young Real Estate.

“Our global management team is very pleased to welcome Johan and we are looking forward to further developing our Nordics platform together.”
