NEWPORT BEACH, CA—KBS Capital Markets Group, a distributor of real estate-related investment products, recently passed more than $6 billion in capital raised since inception.

These virtues have allowed us to stay viable in an ever-changing, dynamic asset class,” said Mick Manning, chief executive officer and president for KBS Capital Markets Group. “This is a significant milestone for us and we wouldn't have reached it if it wasn't for our team's hard work, the support of the financial advisors and broker-dealers who partner with us, and the trust of our investors.”

BS Capital Markets Group was formed to distribute investment products, including non-traded Real Estate Investment Trusts, exclusively through investment professionals.
