Porter joined as executive director real estate and Swanger as head of advisory board financial products. 

Porter spent 14 years at Macquarie Group, where he formed and led the United States Real Estate Structured Finance Group. 

He had further specialised in the financial structuring of real estate projects of the past 12 years as head of FACS Real Estate Finance and Consulting Services.
