Knight Frank Boosts Research Team in APAC

The global property advisor has appointed an industry veteran to oversee its research teams across the region. Knight Frank has appointed Christine Li as head of research, Asia-Pacific, based in Singapore, it said in an announcement on Monday.

Li brings over 15 years of industry experience delivering research and strategic analysis for both commercial and residential real estate markets. She joins from Cushman & Wakefield, where she spent six years, most recently as head of research, Singapore and Southeast Asia.

Li will oversee the firm’s forecasts and insights across office, industrial and residential sectors as well as specialist asset classes such as student accommodation, multi-family and data centres, and will provide an Asia-Pacific perspective on Knight Frank’s global reports, the announcement said.

Christine’s experience working with Singapore’s leading institutional and private investors, alongside her breadth of expertise across Asia and profile in the market make her the ideal candidate to lead Knight Frank’s research in the region, Kevin Coppel, managing director, Knight Frank Asia Pacific, said.
