He then went on to serve as head of research for Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) from 2019 to 2020, before taking on his current roles as global chief operating officer (COO) for CBRE Research and head of investor thought leadership.
Prior to joining CBRE, Chin held senior positions in research and investment strategy at PGIM and Deutsche Bank Group. He holds a Bachelor of Arts in Land Economics and Administration from National Taipei University, a Master of Science in Real Estate from the University of Reading, and a PhD in Real Estate Investment from Oxford Brookes University.
Vikram Kohli, CBRE’s COO and CEO of advisory services, expresses confidence in Chin’s abilities, stating that he is “well known for his astute analysis of global real estate markets and sectors”. Kohli adds that CBRE and its clients will undoubtedly benefit from Chin’s strong focus on delivering actionable insights and market intelligence that inform real estate investment and occupation strategies.
