Supported MSCI’s urgent space need despite fixed lease constraints.
MSCI Office Case Study
01 The Opportunity
Cushman & Wakefield Core were approached by MSCI with an urgent requirement for additional space to support headcount growth. At the time, MSCI held an existing lease with 2 years remaining and no early termination provisions.
02 The Solution
We successfully secured a new lease for the 2,400 sqft space within Al Fattan Currency House, enabling a seamless, back-to-back transition with a zero-cost exit from their existing premises.
03 The Approach
We conducted a DIFC-wide search for a 2,000 sqft office, with Burj Daman identified as the preferred option. Lease buyout discussions were underway with the existing landlord at Al Fattan Currency House to facilitate the relocation. However, during this process, a 2,400 sqft opportunity became available within their current building, prompting a reassessment.
