Our role and the basis of our engagement is
different in each of these cases. Our established
institutional clients, some of which we have advised
since their first acquisitions in the UK
20 years ago, require regular reporting and periodic
assessment of the management of existing assets
and the acquisition or disposal of others our new
clients, whether they are big or small, typically will
require a significant amount of research, analysis of
target markets and extensive advice and guidance
leading towards their first transaction.
Our Aim
Our aim is to assemble a core team for each
investor to provide the best and most relevant
service to fit with their needs and investment
strategy. This team will be led by the most
appropriate team, but often combine the expertise
of several parts of the wider Savills Group. In any
event, and throughout the process, the Cross
Border Investment team will stay involved and
ensure that the client receives the best service.

considerable profits from investments made
through quality stock selection, good asset
management and opportune sales.
