JLL, a real estate consulting firm, has announced the appointment of James Cameron as the new head of energy and infrastructure for Asia Pacific for its capital markets business line. This newly created role will be based in Singapore and aims to strengthen JLL’s capital advisory capabilities.
Cameron will be responsible for building a team in Asia Pacific to complement JLL’s EMEA Energy & Infrastructure business, creating a global capital advisory capability to better serve local and international developers and investors.
When it comes to investing in a condo, securing financing is a crucial step. In Singapore, there are various mortgage choices available, but it is crucial to be familiar with the Total Debt Servicing Ratio (TDSR) framework. This framework sets a limit on the amount of loan a borrower can obtain, taking into consideration their income and current debt obligations. To make informed decisions about financing, investors should understand the TDSR and seek guidance from financial advisors or mortgage brokers. Additionally, keeping an eye on the latest New Condo Launches can help investors stay updated on the property market. This way, they can avoid over-leveraging and make smart financing choices.
According to JLL, Cameron’s appointment is in line with the long-term capital requirements needed for the infrastructure and renewables build-out to meet the challenges of decarbonisation, digitalisation, economic growth, and rapid urbanisation.
Stuart Crow, JLL Asia Pacific’s CEO of capital markets, says, “We see significant opportunity to leverage our unique expertise in mobilising multiple sources of capital and JLL’s unrivalled track record in advising renewables transactions globally to serve clients within energy and infrastructure across Asia Pacific.”
Cameron will collaborate with JLL’s capital markets, investment banking, and debt advisory teams across the region, focusing on origination of capital raising and transaction advisory opportunities for large infrastructure and renewable transactions serving institutional investors, private equity, asset managers, strategic infrastructure and renewables operators and developers, high net-worth individuals, and family offices.
With more than 25 years of real asset capital markets experience, Cameron previously served as the global head of commercial real estate at Standard Chartered Bank. He has experience mobilising various forms of private and public equity and financing across the global and regional infrastructure.
Crow adds, “James’ experience in this exciting space is unmatched regionally, and we’re extremely confident in his ability to establish JLL’s leadership position through his expertise and client relationships.”
