Christian set Valor up in 2016, with investment partners Jeffrey Kelter and Robert Savage, with the idea of creating a pan European Real Estate investment and Asset Management partnership focused exclusively on the logistics sector. Today they have over 3bn Euros under management, spanning over 180 properties and 12 million square feet.

Prior to Valor, Christian, established Delin Capital Asset Management in 2012 where he served as the CEO. He has worked at Robert Fleming, Credit Suisse, GE Real Estate and JP Morgan having graduated from the University of Bristol with a B.Sc. in Economics & Politics.

I sat down with Christian to discuss a broad range of subjects which covered some of the following topics:

* How he got into real estate

* Move from banking to principal investment

* How he created Valor

* Market timing

* Proprietary data

* Raising capital

* Importance of selecting the right team

* Future of the business

* Industrial land attrition

Oh and one last question - who are the People, what Property, and in which Place Christian would invest should he have £500m of capital at his disposal.
