Commenting on why Colliers won, a RICS’ statement said: “The Colliers’ team developed significantly in 2021, covering large portfolio clients across APAC and helping developers, governments, and occupiers while specialising in niche sectors as a best-practice professional partner. We highly recommend Colliers as Valuation Team of the Year given their young, positive influence on society, ability to nurture young professionals, and leadership as professionals in the industry, including being a RICS registered company.”
