Our business starts with raising funds. Over the past few years, we have increased our investor base substantially by expanding the broker/dealer network through which we offer our investments. We now have relationships with more than 65 broker/dealer firms, and no firm can claim more than 50% of sales of our most recent CPA® program, CPA®:17 - Global. Just as we look to diversify our CPA® portfolios, we are diversifying our capital-raising potential.
2010 was a record fundraising year for W. P. Carey, as we raised more than $590 million of the $1.5 billion of equity raised in CPA®:17 - Global's initial offering. We look forward to continuing this trend with CPA®:17 - Global's follow-on offering, as well as raising funds for our lodging-focused offering, Carey Watermark Investors.
