A Morgan Stanley unit and Wainbridge Capital, through which PIK founder Kirill Pisarev invests in London properties, reached a joint-venture agreement on real estate development, the two companies said Friday.
The partnership will seek to "unlock significant value through redevelopment, refurbishment and other asset management initiatives" from office buildings in London, according to the statement.
A "fund of funds" managed by Morgan Stanley Alternative Investment Partners will take a 49 percent stake in FC200, a 15,200-square-meter office development at Park Royal in west London, as the first joint project. It was bought by Wainbridge's Global Opportunities London fund in September.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
