NAI Global Picks Up a New French Partner

PRINCETON, NJ-NAI Global, based here, has added the French real estate firm Evolis to its worldwide managed network, which now totals more than 300 firms. NAI Evolis, founded in 2000 and headed by Guillaume Dechert, offers a variety of services to investors and tenants from its offices in Paris and Nancy.

“We’ve been active in the French market for many years, including projects for UBS Private Client Group, Dow Jones, Progress Software and others,” says Jeffrey M. Finn, president and COO of NAI Global. “When our former French partner was acquired by a larger French financial organization, we committed to maintain our link to the French community.”

“With our knowledge of the French market coupled with NAI’s long-term operational experience, we expect continued double-digit growth for NAI Evolis,” Dechert says. “We expect our French clients to benefit from the networked NAI offices abroad.” Current clients of NAI Evolis include Diageo, GE, HSBC, Interactive Data, Natexis, Newsweek, Meridiam, Schneider, Sony BMG, SAP, Wipro and Yves Rocher.
