Martin Farinola joins Arc & Co. as head of Institutional Capital Advisory
Arc & Co., part of FRP Advisory, is pleased to announce the appointment of Martin Farinola as head of Institutional Capital Advisory.
He joins from Delancey and will play a key leadership role in developing FRP’s strategic expansion and creation of its dedicated Real Estate pillar.
Martin brings 25 years’ experience in real estate finance and investment, having worked with some of the world’s largest fund managers and lenders, including Goldman Sachs, Brookfield and BlackRock. He has deep expertise across equity and debt capital markets, with a strong track record of originating, structuring and executing complex real estate transactions.
Most recently, he was head of Real Estate Debt Strategies at Delancey, where he led the firm’s real estate debt strategy and oversaw the management of its debt investments across the portfolio. Prior to Delancey, he ran Brookfield’s European commercial real estate credit business, establishing and scaling a leading platform in the region.
His appointment comes at a significant moment for Arc & Co., following its acquisition by FRP. As FRP continues to expand its capabilities, Martin will lead the build-out of the Institutional Capital Advisory function – a cornerstone of the planned Real Estate Advisory proposition.
Andrew Robinson, Partner at FRP, said: “The demand for expert, integrated advisory has never been greater in the real estate sector.
“Martin’s appointment reflects our intention to broaden our scope and impact in the advisory space, while enhancing the support we can provide to our clients.
“We are very much looking forward to his valuable contribution to this next phase of our growth.”
Martin added: “Arc & Co. and FRP have real momentum, and the team of real estate professionals has the expertise to deliver real end-to-end support on the complex challenges that real estate stakeholders face. I’m excited to work with the team to help clients navigate these issues and deliver long-term, sustainable outcomes.”
