Arbuthnot Latham
London-headquartered Arbuthnot Latham, the UK private bank, expanded its Real Estate Finance (REF) team, with three new hires and two internal promotions.

This will strengthen the team’s capacity to deliver tailored solutions across the sector and reflects a blend of deep industry experience and internal progression, and advance the business’ ability to support clients with complex financing needs, the firm said in a statement.
