Mastern Investment Management announced on the 3rd that it has carried out an organizational restructuring to create a trusted organization for investors in response to the rapidly changing market and future challenges.

First, to present unified investment standards and consistent investment directions for domestic projects, a 'Fund Management Committee (hereinafter FMC)' was newly established within the domestic division. The FMC serves as a control tower where experts from various fields gather to propose strategies and management plans for overall domestic investment and development projects.

CEO Hong Seong-hyeok serves as the chairman, and one person in charge of each sector?residential, office, and logistics?strengthens sector-specific project expertise. In addition, the committee consists of a total of nine members, including experts in Capital Market (CM), development management, asset management, fund management, and research.

Emphasis was also placed on strengthening asset management (Asset Management · AM) capabilities, which have recently become increasingly important. The Domestic Division’s Investment Management Headquarters 5, which was previously responsible for asset management tasks, was renamed the 'Asset Management Headquarters' and integrated to manage real assets comprehensively.

To concentrate capabilities required for logistics sector projects, a 'Logistics Integrated Organization' is operated. For this purpose, logistics-related organizations within the domestic division and the logistics platform team responsible for logistics center leasing marketing were organized under a single headquarters.

The CM division, which raises and manages blind funds, was incorporated into the domestic division as the 'CM Headquarters' to create synergy with the investment management organization. The Development Management Headquarters, which supports the overall construction part of development projects, was also moved to the domestic division.

Namgung Hun, CEO of Mastern Investment Management, stated, “We aim to overcome the crisis caused by the ongoing high-interest-rate environment through Mastern’s ‘One team’ culture,” adding, “Through this organizational restructuring, we will reexamine the company’s entire business portfolio and make every effort to enhance asset management and investment efficiency.”
