Bill Meaney, president and CEO of Iron Mountain (NYSE: IRM), joined REIT.com for a CEO Spotlight video interview at REITWorld 2014: NAREIT’s Annual Convention for All Things REIT at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis.
Iron Mountain, which is included in the S&P 500 Index, is a storage and information management company. The company converted to a REIT earlier this year. Meaney noted that Iron Mountain elected to become a REIT because it best suited the company’s capital allocation model and allowed it to effectively double its dividend.
