On Monday, VBARE Iberian Properties Socimi (VBARE) announced the appointment of Fabrizio Agrimi (pictured below) as the new CEO of the Socimi. Agrimi is a grand connoisseur of the real estate sector and has extensive experience in investments, mergers and acquisitions, not only in Spain but also in the United Kingdom and Italy. He has worked for a number of high profile international companies and until May 2017 he was Managing Director and Partner at Altan Capital.

Prior to joining Altan Capital in 2007, Fabrizio Agrimi formed part of the Investments Department at Aguirre Newman (2004-2006), where he participated in the acquisition, management and sale of numerous real estate assets. Prior to that, he worked in Milan and London for the law firm Vita Samory, Fabrini e Associati (now part of Orrick) where he was a member of the M&A, Private Equity and Financial Services teams.

Fabrizio Agrimi holds an MBA from the ESADE business school (Barcelona) and a degree in Law from the University of Trento. Whilst at university, Fabrizio completed two international internships at the law firm Sebastià Roca i Associats (now part of Roca Junyent) in Barcelona and at the European Parliament in Luxembourg.

With this addition, VBARE strengthens its team and consolidates its base for growth. VBARE recently presented its results for the first nine months of the year, during which time it generated a profit of €2,177,000, resulting primarily from the appreciation in value of its real estate portfolio. Revenues from rental income amounted to €781,000, which represented an increase of 188% with respect to the same period last year. The total value of VBARE’s property portfolio amounts to €28.2 million, up by 17% compared to the end of 2016.
