Morgenroth said: "As we move out of a market downturn, the next few years will see further challenges and opportunities for the non-listed sector. My role along with the Management Board is to ensure that INREV continues to play a central role in moving the industry forward at this time. I would like to thank Johan and the rest of the outgoing board members for their contribution to the industry. They have overseen key developments such as the development of the INREV Index and the INREV Guidelines leading to increased transparency and professionalism in this industry." Morgenroth was first appointed to the INREV Management Board in April 2009.
Van der Ende said: "It has been a privilege to work with the Board, the INREV team and the members over the last three years. The organization has come of age during this period. It has produced essential tools, data, research and guidance for all participants in the non-listed real estate sector. In Michael, I think we have found an excellent and committed Chairman who will ensure that INREV remains fully focused on the needs of its members."
