Real Estate Investment Funds

Our advisors specialize in global coverage, local knowledge, and end-to-end solutions. They provide strategic counsel from fund level to property level, consolidating all regulatory requirements and helping with the optimization of business processes.

We only work with advisors that have deep experience supporting fund managers across the real estate spectrum, from core and core-plus to value-add and opportunistic properties.  Our track record of servicing commercial and retail assets is equally strong, as are the specialty areas that we service, such as residential, logistics, and healthcare.

The experts in our network have a wealth of experience supporting multi-jurisdictional investment structures and work closely to understand the underlying fundamentals of every business. This collaborative approach frees clients to manage day-to-day activities with a laser focus on a fund’s core business.

The real estate investment services that we open to our clients can help them to meet complex fund reporting and compliance requirements, including the push to bring greater ESG transparency to investors. Over the past decade, our advisors have developed technologies and processes to conquer these complexities and provide reliable reporting on time.

Our investment fund specialists deliver bespoke solutions for all infrastructure investments. They perceive that infrastructure is a popular investment class that will continue to receive a growing share of capital flows. In view of this growth, they offer bespoke, multi-jurisdictional solutions, helping clients to optimise their business models and stay ahead of the regulatory curve. 

Infrastructure deals are typically large, complex, and public, with the investment phase often exceeding 20 years. These characteristics can trigger more complex administration requirements, including obligatory audits, international financial standard reporting (IFRS) obligations, and multi-jurisdictional consolidated financial results.
