In Episode #17 of IPE’s Leaders in Investment podcast series, IPE Real Assets Editor in Chief Richard Lowe speaks with Paul Clark, Non-Executive Director and Senior Adviser, Former Head of Real Assets Europe, AustralianSuper.

Paul Clark, who recently retired from his position as Head of Real Assets Europe at AustralianSuper, discusses the changes he has seen in the industry over nearly 40 years, his certainty that the world’s great cities will survive and endure, and why global investors are likely to bring forward allocations to European real estate.

“It is an inevitable part of the human experience to gather together and exchange ideas.”

Paul Clark received the IPE Real Assets Outstanding Industry Contribution Award at the 2025 IPE Real Estate Global Conference & Awards.
