Team Overview
CBRE Corporate Occupier Advisory
Global Financial Strategy (GFS)
Who We Are
The Global Financial Strategy team (GFS) serves as a dedicated financial advisory resource embedded directly within the CBRE account team. Rather than functioning as an external service, GFS operates as an integrated strategic partner — working alongside brokers and various client stakeholders (eg Workplace, FP&A, C-Suite) throughout every stage of the real estate decision-making process.
Drawing on 25+ years of combined Corporate Real Estate analysis experience, the GFS team has provided financial strategy and advisory support for thousands of requirements — spanning more than 30 million square feet of corporate office space — on behalf of clients ranging from early-stage ventures to Fortune 50 corporations (e.g. Accenture, Nvidia, Stripe, Rippling, Morrison Foerster Law).
What We Do
GFS specializes in developing fully customized Occupier financial analysis models tailored to the specific reporting requirements and decision metrics for each client engagement. We are able to seamlessly incorporate both Cash and P&L functionality to align with each client’s internal finance and accounting guidance.
Core service areas include:
- Global lease portfolio analysis template development, lease analysis and financial strategy
- Complex and high-value individual client transaction support
- Custom financial modeling with Cash and comprehensive GAAP/IFRS P&L impacts
- Strategic consulting engagements on both client portfolios and individual requirements
How We Work
GFS distinguishes itself by working directly with each client’s internal financial and operational stakeholders as part of the greater CBRE Account Team. By ensuring alignment between real estate strategy and broader corporate objectives — from FP&A reporting requirements to C-Suite decision frameworks — GFS enables clients and their brokers to move forward with confidence that every recommendation is grounded in a complete financial picture.
This embedded model ensures that GFS is not simply a financial modeling resource, but a true strategic extension of the account team that understands the business context behind every real estate decision.
Our Commitment: RAISE
In addition to our commitment to CBRE’s core RISE values (Respect. Integrity. Service. Excellence), the GFS team is dedicated to its own RAISE value-proposition on each client engagement:
Responsive. Accurate. Innovative. Strategic. Efficient.
2025 Year in Review
