In each episode of Desert Island Risks, we talk to industry leaders in the real assets space to hear about the risks and rewards behind their success. Whether setting up their own business, taking a chance on the market or backing people over numbers, we explore the lessons learned throughout our guest's careers. Unlike our namesake, we don't play any music to accompany each interview, instead sharing sound clips from friends, colleagues and confidants of our speakers who were impacted along the way.

    Richard Croft - Revisited
    Apr 21 2023
    In a change from our usual podcast format – today, Emily revisits her conversation with Richard Croft, Executive Chairman and founder of M7 Real Estate, three years’ on from their original conversation over zoom, during the Covid pandemic. This time, we hear from Richard about M7’s recent deal with Oxford Properties, discuss his departure from the business’ executive leadership team and dig deeper into his thoughts on leadership, futureproofing a business and putting your best foot first when approaching investment opportunities. We also hear from Richard’s backers and friends on the unique impact he has had on the industry, as well as revisiting a few old gems from the Desert Island Risk vaults – of course we couldn’t miss the opportunity to return to the infamous story of “The Marble” …!

    In our tenth episode, Emily meets Joanne McNamara, Head of Europe at Oxford Properties. Having joined Oxford in 2010 as an Investment Analyst (and as one of the first of three employees in the team) Jo rose through the ranks as Oxford grew its AUM to $10bn and its headcount to 40 people. She played a central role in Oxford’s merger with M7 Real Estate in 2021 and was awarded PERE industry figure of the year in the deals aftermath. In this episode, we learn Joanne’s thoughts on what it takes to step up as a leader in business, how to approach risks and challenges with thoughtfulness and respect, and why more offices should take up team sports (or just Netball, according to Jo!). We also hear from Joanne’s business partners, mentors, family and longstanding friends on why she stands out from the rest, Jo’s ability to back herself through challenging times and how she has found balance between business leadership and family.

    In our ninth podcast episode, Emily talks to James Thornton, former CEO and current Non-Executive Chairman of Mayfair Capital. After 20 years working on the advisory side with Jones Lang Wooton and Savills, James took the leap in setting up Mayfair Capital with his former JLW colleague, Guy Brogden, in 2002. Since then, he has helped the business to invest hundreds of millions of pounds of capital, culminating in the sale of Mayfair to Swiss Life in 2016. In this episode, we hear from James on the challenges of setting up your own business, how to deal with unexpected market changes, albeit a war, global pandemic, financial crisis or Brexit, the secret to building trust with your investors and why the people behind the real estate still matter so much. We also hear from James’ family, friends and former colleagues on why he has stood out in the market, his unflappable attitude in a crisis and his secret penchant for soppy films!
