Gabbay joined LaSalle in 2010 as chief investment officer for Asia Pacific, and became CEO of that division in 2015. His previous experience includes heading up the asset finance division at Nomura, and working on the leadership team of the Asia Pacific global real estate group at Lehman Brothers.

Keith Fujii, LaSalle’s Japan CEO, will succeed Gabbay as Asia Pacific CEO.

LaSalle is the asset management arm of JLL, and manages approximately $65 billion in both private and public real estate assets, according to the company.
