Evrard and Kas Bordier:

“We invest in people first. What drew us to Jefferies London wasn’t just the impressive growth, but the team behind it – sharp, driven, and deeply human. Their rare mix of ambition, integrity, and strategic clarity stood out immediately.“The UK estate market is at a turning point. We’ve spent years learning by living –across Europe and Asia – and we believe the next chapter will be written by those who understand both legacy and disruption. Jefferies has the vision, the edge, and the people to lead that shift. We’re proud to be part of the journey.

“London itself has always embodied that duality, timeless yet ever-changing. Regardless of politics or policy, it remains a global magnet for culture, creativity, and capital. It’s a city that reinvents itself through its people: diverse, ambitious, and full of spark.

“That’s why we believe London real estate will continue to attract high and ultra-high-net-worth individuals. It’s not just a place to invest – it’s a platform for legacy and long-term value.

“With Jefferies’ entrepreneurial brokerage model now rooted in London, the stage is set for a new era. This isn’t just a firm. It’s a launchpad for talent, energy, and innovation.

“London doesn’t wait. It creates. And so do we.”

Damien Jefferies, Founder of Jefferies London:

“To welcome Evrard and Kas into the business is not only a privilege, but a clear signal of the kind of organisation we are building at Jefferies London.“They bring a wealth of global experience, an extraordinary depth of character, and a shared belief in what’s possible when innovation meets integrity. This partnership speaks to our long-term ambition: to lead London’s prime market not just in transactions, but in vision.”
