JPMorgan Brings Back Former Exec To Lead Real Estate Americas Division
Two years after leaving JPMorgan Chase to start his own firm, Chad Tredway has returned to the bank.
Tredway will serve as the head of Real Estate Americas at J.P. Morgan Asset Management, the investment manager announced Thursday. Real Estate Americas is the U.S. real estate investment platform of J.P. Morgan Global Alternatives, the alternative investment arm of J.P. Morgan Asset Management, and has $74B in equity and debt assets under management, according to the announcement.
The firm’s current head of Real Estate Americas, Mike Kelly, announced his retirement earlier this year. The company said there will be a transition period before Tredway fully assumes the role.
J.P. Morgan will also take over management of Tredway’s Trio Investment Group. Tredway will integrate the institutional sale-leaseback property investment firm, which has $250M in assets under management, into Real Estate Americas.
“From his previous time at J.P. Morgan and his presence in the industry, we know Chad to be a visionary leader who brings a powerful combination of real estate expertise and leadership experience,” J.P. Morgan Asset Management Head of Global Alternatives Anton Pil said. “We’re excited to have him back at J.P. Morgan and are excited that Chad will extend Real Estate Americas’ industry leadership.”
Tredway worked at the commercial bank arm of JPMorgan Chase from 2008 to 2021. From 2017 until his departure, Tredway was the lead real estate lender at the bank.
