CHICAGO, IL – KIG, Chicago’s leading commercial real estate brokerage firm specializing in institutional multifamily properties throughout the Midwest, has announced Jay Zukanovic, 29, has joined the firm as financial analyst.

Most recently Zukanovic was treasury manager for Chicago-based Amsted Industries Inc. Prior to that, he was senior analyst – global treasury for Chicago-based Wm. Wrigley Jr. Co.

“Zukanovic’s background in treasury expands the depth of services offered to KIG clients,” said Susan Tjarksen, principal and managing broker at KIG. 

“He is in the process of creating financial models for us. Coming from outside the real estate industry, his view on creating and developing proformas is really going to continue to set us apart from our competition.”

In his most recent position at Amsted Industries, Zukanovic managed internal valuation models ensuring the integrity of Amsted’s assigned stock price by a third-party financial advisor. 

He also constructed a multi-variable forecasting model to predict share redemption behavior by back-testing idiosyncratic and external market indicators through statistical analysis.

“I have been seeking an opportunity to be part of building a company from the ground up,” Zukanovic said. 

“KIG’s extensive use of market intelligence resonates with my skill set of researching valuation trends. This information will give institutional investors a huge edge in their decision-making process.”
