How we invest for this fund

We invest across three key pillars: core, value add and opportunistic.

The core part of the portfolio (typically 40-50%) gives exposure to, in our opinion, the best real estate assets around the world managed by the best management teams.

The value-add part (40-50%) gives exposure to the long-term themes that we believe will drive above industry growth rates.

The opportunistic part (typically 0-20%) comprise of companies which have stock-specific issues that we believe are being – or are capable of being – resolved.
