Realterm, an independent global investment manager focused on the transportation industry, today announced that Catherine Lane has joined the firm as Chief Accounting Officer, Europe.

In her new role, Lane will lead European accounting and financial reporting across Realterm's full suite of fund, property and management entities, serving as the primary accounting advisor to the CFO Europe. She will oversee fund accounting and investor reporting, property accounting, treasury oversight and third-party provider relationships across the region, while managing and developing Realterm's European accounting teams.

“Catherine brings more than two decades of accounting and financial expertise across European fund structures along with deep knowledge of the logistics industry, making her a valuable addition to our growing European team,” said Amanda Battist, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Europe. “Her arrival marks an important step in further strengthening our European platform.”

Most recently, Lane served as Director of Finance and Reporting at EQT Real Estate in London, where she led the firm’s European finance function across its real estate logistics portfolios. Prior to EQT, she was Group Financial Controller at Logicor Group and Finance Manager at APN, having spent the early part of her career with PwC London.

Realterm's European footprint has grown significantly since entering the market five years ago, today comprising a pan-European real estate portfolio of over €1.2 billion in assets across key freight corridors in Europe. Realterm manages both an open-end, core-plus fund and closed-end, value-add fund series in Europe. In 2025, the firm closed its second pan-European logistics fund at over €470 million in total commitments, materially above the firm’s target.
