Concord Capital Partners Acquires $79-Million Los Angeles Apartment Portfolio
Beverly Hills-based Concord Capital Partners acquired a five-property portfolio of apartments in Los Angeles from two separate sellers for $79 million. The 537-unit portfolio was acquired with a $60.5-million senior loan provided by Arbor and supplemented with $30 million in equity. The properties are located in the Koreatown and Hollywood neighborhoods and were all built before 1930. They are recognized as iconic and architecturally significant buildings, featuring grand lobbies, ornate facades, landscaped courtyards and panoramic city views. The portfolio includes the 181-unit Langham located at 715 Normandie Ave., The Fontenoy (51 units), The Sir Francis Drake (61 units), The Piccadilly (74 units) and Park Wilshire (170 units). The new ownership will be rolling out targeted improvements, while maintaining the historical integrity of the buildings. 'We were attracted to these properties because of their favorable pricing relative to historical sales, replacement costs and what we view as the intrinsic value of the assets,' said Reuben Robin, chief executive of Concord, in a statement. Kitty Wallace of Colliers represented the seller in the sale of Park Wilshire, with Janet Neman of Kidder Mathews handling the sale of the remaining four properties. Zalmi Klein of Northmarq arranged the senior financing from Arbor. Information for this article was sourced from Concord Capital Partners.

Swiss Watch Giant Navigates Trump's Tariff Uncertainty
Swiss watchmaker Swatch Group's chief executive Nick Hayek has a tariff problem. And the clock is ticking. US President Donald Trump unleashed a 39 percent tariff on most Swiss-made products last week, which will come into effect on Thursday. The country - known for its luxury timepieces, chocolate and secretive banks - is racing to gain a reprieve. Trump's tariffs - aimed, he says, at erasing global trade imbalances - have rattled companies around the world and sparked scrambles to shift supply chains and sales channels by many brands - few more recognizable than Swatch, which became famous for its plastic watches. The United States is the largest export market for Swiss watches. Shares in Swiss watch and luxury firms, including Swatch, slid nearly 5 percent on Monday on news of the tariffs before paring back losses. Swatch Group - the biggest Swiss watchmaker by sales volume - is trying to adapt, Hayek told Reuters. The company has front-loaded shipments to the United States, is tapping US shoppers as they travel abroad, and has also raised its prices. Part of the challenge for the industry is that Swiss watches need to be 60 percent made in the country, making it hard to shift production elsewhere. 'We produce everything in Switzerland, not in China. And we have a high cost. And when you add a 39 percent tariff, we cannot absorb that. So prices will go up for sure,' Hayek said on Monday, without giving specifics on the potential rise. Swatch Group, which also owns Swiss luxury watch brands such as Omega, Tissot and Longines, already raised prices by 5 percent following Trump's first tariff announcement in April. Hayek explained that the firm had started to ship extra inventory to the United States earlier in the year when Trump's initial salvo of global tariffs hit. Swiss watchmakers more broadly saw a spike in exports in April, trade data show. 'We shipped much more products to the United States, so this means there is not an immediate impact on us,' he said, adding that Swatch has at least three to six months of US stock in warehouses and stores, giving a short-term buffer from tariffs. The firm plans to ship 'a little bit more' inventory over the next few days before the tariffs take effect. Hayek said demand for its watches remained strong in the United States, for now. Jean-Philippe Bertschy, an analyst at Bank Vontobel, a Zurich-based private bank, said higher inventory levels built up by watchmakers would give them breathing space only for the short term. Super premium watches could more easily pass on extra costs than mid-market and entry level ones, he said. 'The industry will be hoping and praying that the tariffs can be negotiated down to something like the 15 percent that Europe has,' Bertschy said. 'If the 39 percent tariff remained, it would be devastating for the industry.' The watchmaking industry is Switzerland's third-largest export sector, behind chemicals and pharmaceuticals, and sales of machinery. It made up 9 percent of Swiss exports in 2024. Swatch Group is the third-biggest Swiss watchmaker by revenue, after Rolex and Richemont, which makes IWC, Jaeger-LeCoultre and Cartier watches. For watchmakers, a silver lining was the flexibility of sales channels for their portable products, which meant Swatch could target US shoppers while they are overseas in tourist hot spots. 'Customers are mobile,' Hayek said. When China imposed luxury taxes, that simply drove Chinese consumers to shop in Macau and Hong Kong, he said. 'There are many possibilities for Americans. They travel all over the world,' said Hayek, pointing to options like shops aboard cruise ships. 'They continue to buy even if you have to increase the prices in the United States.' 'What Counts Is What Trump Is Saying' Nonetheless, Swatch is keen for the Swiss government to quickly strike a deal to avert the threatened 39 percent tariff. Hayek called on Swiss President Karin Keller-Sutter to travel quickly to the United States to resolve the issue. The tariff rate - one of the highest tariffs globally - could hit other Swiss luxury brands such as Rolex and Patek Philippe. 'The 'Swiss-made' label is part of our DNA. The history and expertise of our industry are unique worldwide,' Yves Bugmann, president of the Federation of the Swiss Watch Industry, said. 'It is therefore inconceivable to abandon or dilute the label.' The United States is the biggest foreign market for Swiss watches overall, accounting for 16.8 percent of exports worth about 4.4 billion Swiss francs ($5.44 billion), federation data show. Bugmann said that the Swiss watchmaking sector had been investing in training in the United States as well as retail networks and services, adding the tariffs marked a 'serious blow' that would indirectly hurt the US economy. Underscoring the volatile outlook, Georges Mari, co-owner of Zurich-based investment firm Rossier, Mari & Associates, which holds shares in Swatch, said it is 'impossible' to forecast the impact on the industry. 'Tariffs can change at any moment due to the unpredictability of the Trump administration,' Mari said. The US market generated 18 percent of Swatch Group's sales in 2024, according to broker Jefferies. Switzerland's government said it was ready to make a 'more attractive offer' in trade talks with Washington, after it held an extraordinary cabinet meeting on Monday to discuss its response to the tariff. Swatch Group CEO Hayek said it wasn't yet 'doomsday' and hoped an agreement could be struck - though that was very much in the hands of the US president. 'What counts on the US side is what Mr. Trump is saying,' he said. 'Nobody else.'

Tesla but no Rivian? Electric vehicle maker sues Ohio over ban on direct car sales
A California-based electric vehicle maker is suing the state's Registrar of Motor Vehicles, saying Ohio law prevents it from selling cars in the state while letting Tesla do precisely that. Rivian, a manufacturer of electric vehicles, filed the lawsuit on Aug. 4 in U.S. District Court in Columbus, asking the court to determine that the provision of Ohio's law violates the Fourteenth Amendment equal protection rights of Ohio consumers. According to the lawsuit, a 2014 Ohio law allows the Registrar of Motor Vehicles to deny a license for a motor vehicle dealer to "a manufacturer, or a parent company, subsidiary or affiliated entity of a manufacturer." "Shortly thereafter, and to cut-off future competition, OADA (the Ohio Automobile Dealerships Association) lobbied the Ohio General Assembly to enact a law that would prohibit the direct-sales-only business model for every manufacturer but Tesla," the lawsuit says. At the time the law was enacted in 2014, Tesla had two dealerships in Ohio and has since opened a third. Like Tesla, Rivian does not use franchised dealerships but operates its own dealerships in 16 states. "Ohio law permits manufacturers like Rivian to do practically anything other than sell vehicles in the state directly to consumers," the lawsuit says. This includes performing service on vehicles, renting vehicles, delivering vehicles to Ohioans who have purchased them in other states, and assisting with financing, titling, and registration of the vehicles. "If Rivian, LLC obtains the relief sought in this lawsuit, it will take every step necessary to obtain an Ohio dealership license and sell its vehicles in Ohio directly to consumers," the lawsuit says. "There is nothing unfair about Rivian selling its own vehicles to consumers in Ohio without using any middlemen, as Ohio already permits certain manufacturers to do." The lawsuit requests that a federal judge allow Rivian to operate in Ohio, allowing for increased competition and consumer choice in the electric vehicle market. In January, the Department of Energy under President Joe Biden's administration approved a $6.5 billion loan to Rivianfor assistance in building a second manufacturing plant in Georgia. The company currently has a manufacturing plant in Illinois. No court date has been set, according to federal court records.
