IRVINE, CA—As part of an ongoing strategy to further grow its base of institutional investors, Western National Group has launched an enhanced institutional investor-focused platform and appointed George Ochs, a former institutional manager with JP Morgan, as its chief marketing officer.
Ochs will work to expand Western National's investor base by overseeing the firm's strategic outreach to corporate and public pension funds, endowments, foundations, and high net worth individuals. He will also be responsible for maintaining and developing relationships with Western National Group's current investor groups.
“As one of the largest owners and developers of multifamily product in the U.S., we recognize the potential of continuing to align ourselves with institutional investors for whom we can generate attractive yields,” says Michael Hayde, CEO. “Based on our lengthy track record of strong results in this industry, we anticipate strong investor interest over the next 12 to 24 months.”
