In addition, the company has also won Certificate of Excellence for Consultancy Services Team of the Year.

The Office Agency team completed lease transaction encompassing more than 2 million square feet of office space in Hong Kong.

Mr. Alva To, DTZ/Cushman & Wakefield's Senior Managing Director, Hong Kong and Head of Consulting, Greater China, said, "The Belt and Road initiatives engage the business and investment plans of Chinese enterprises with the growth and development of emerging markets. Our global service delivery team readily responded to the challenges posed by these large and complex projects in frontier markets. We pride ourselves on our effective and tailor-made advisory services for clients wherever they choose to go."

"The success of our Office Agency and Consulting team at this year's RICS Awards is the best testament to the increased strength, broader set of best-in-class resources and breadth of services that are genuine benefits realized by the merger for our clients.
