Tissot will be based in Paris and report to George Fraser-Harding, head of pan-European funds, Real Estate. In the role, she will aid in Aviva’s real estate expansion plans throughout the continent. Last month, the firm announced its first real estate transaction in the Swedish market.
“We are very pleased to welcome Kasia to Aviva Investors at a time when our European real estate strategy continues to grow,” Fraser-Harding said.
“Kasia’s experience in managing cross-border investments will be incredibly important, particularly as we continue to expand our portfolio into new regions where we see a great deal of growth potential and investment opportunities we believe can be additive in delivering long-term outcomes for investors.”
