With this investment, Cushman & Wakefield acquires a 40% stake in Greystone’s Agency, FHA and Servicing businesses

Cushman & Wakefield (NYSE: CWK), a leading global real estate services firm, announced today that it finalized its strategic investment of $500 million in Greystone, a leading national commercial real estate finance company, acquiring a 40% stake in Greystone’s Agency, FHA and Servicing businesses.

With this investment, Cushman & Wakefield and Greystone have officially closed and entered into a previously announced strategic joint venture to deliver best-in-class advisory services and capital solutions to existing, joint and new clients of both firms nationwide.
