Colony Capital, a real estate investment and advisory firm, is partnering with Argent Management LLC to acquire and manage a $800 million portfolio of real estate acquisition, development and construction (ADC) loans that Colony recently acquired from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).
