Welcome to the first edition of our Legal & General x Newmark Partnership Review.
Since 2020, we’ve had the privilege of working alongside Legal & General on a series of significant deals and strategic mandates, and this newsletter highlights the progress we’ve made together.
Inside, you’ll find a snapshot of the key transactions we’ve supported across your portfolios, along with an introduction to your dedicated Newmark team led by Richard Lines and supported by specialists across our Capital Markets, Leasing, Valuation & Advisory, and Consultancy teams.
Our relationship has grown from individual transactions into a more integrated, insight‑driven advisory partnership. We are committed to being a proactive, trusted extension of your team as the market evolves.
As this is our first edition, we’d welcome your feedback on the content and format—and on how we can continue strengthening the value we deliver to Legal & General.
We look forward to building on what we’ve achieved together.
