Their addition to our executive team complements the recent infrastructure changes that we believe will allow us to deliver value to our clients during this seminal period in the real estate market and emerge as a leader in the sector,” said Precilla Torres. “The new leadership team’s respective backgrounds and deep expertise in critical areas of the industry will be instrumental not only to our revitalized penetration in the CMBS, but also providing innovative capital markets and balance sheet solutions for both our large and middle market clients.”

“We are entering a new era of opportunity regarding our coverage of the real estate sector,” said Thierry Bernard, Natixis CIB Global Head of Real Estate & Hospitality. “The enhancements made to our practice in the US, the caliber of the talent that we have brought on board, reflect our commitment to the space and to accelerating the growth of the business with continued investment.” 

Christopher LaBianca brings with him more than 30 years of experience in the real estate debt markets across the commercial and investment banking and private equity space. He is well-known for his service for the Mortgage Bankers Association. Most recently, Christopher served as Head of Origination and Business Development for the Commercial Real Estate Finance division of UBS Bank USA, where he led a national lending platform that provided commercial real estate debt for execution through the bank’s proprietary balance sheet.
