Investment Strategy

Managing real estate equity and lending under the same roof

As part of one of the largest and most diversified real estate platforms in the world, our approach centers on long-term growth driven by global economic and secular trends. Our focus lies on building strong, risk-adjusted portfolios, diversified across sectors and geographies.

We consider equity and lending opportunities in the same light and mainly target properties in primary markets that offer steady, unlevered returns with a low to moderate risk profile.

Our robust investment process is based on best-in-class risk management and specialist in-house expertise.

“The assets and micro-locations we identify for our equity and debt investments are strictly aligned to our high-conviction investment themes, themselves developed through our deep knowledge of local markets and understanding of global trends. This has enabled us to build and manage a resilient, diversified, high-quality real estate portfolio.”
