Scott Morgan appointed as new Head of Real Estate Credit as expansion continues
Morgan will oversee Remara’s Real Estate Credit division, as the alternative asset manager plans to launch more real estate-focused funds into the market.
Alternative asset manager Remara has appointed Scott Morgan as its new Head of Real Estate Credit to lead the RE division as the organisation continues to increase its AUM and portfolio offerings. Following the launch of the Credit Opportunities Fund last month, Remara has appointed a further senior executive to support the expansion of divisions across the investment portfolio.
The appointment of Scott Morgan comes as the alternative asset manager looks to amplify further its real estate credit investment strategies for new and existing clients. Morgan brings deep experience to the role, having worked across a number of global and domestic specialist real estate investment firms for over 25 years.

“Scott is a great addition to our team and keeps us ahead of our ambitious growth goals. He has been on all sides of a real estate transaction and has a long track record of diligent investment decisions that deliver strong returns,” said Andrew McVeigh, Managing Partner.
This announcement from Remara Investment Management, the Australian-based private credit investment fund managing over $950 million across private credit, real estate, and tactical opportunities, follows Ben Dixon’s appointment as Head of Distribution and the launch of two new funds in the previous 12 months.
Commenting on the recent market activity at Remara, McVeigh stated, “We’ve been working to construct a range of investment opportunities that are new and unique to Australian investors, delivering the market a new opportunity for strong returns from historically underappreciated investment classes. It requires an experienced team to work together to deliver that promise. The launch of our new funds and these recent senior appointments signal we’re ready to disrupt the market for experienced investors and launch something at scale that’s quite original.”
Following his appointment as Remara’s new Head of Real Estate Credit, Scott Morgan, said: “Remara’s growth in recent years has been something to watch, as they have built an experienced and diligent team. I look forward to leveraging my experience across every aspect of a real estate transaction to help our clients realise strong returns for years to come.”
Operating under a direct investment model, Remara has achieved annualised returns for investors of 12.44%* on average and has participated in over $3 billion in deals since its founding in 2019.
