fundraising

The investment manager’s latest fundraising drive follows the closing of €200m of loans to Blackstone from its third mezzanine debt fund.

The vehicle will primarily lend against PRS and student accommodation assets in Spain and the UK.

The Italian insurance giant has launched its first property credit vehicle and is aiming to build a €3bn loan book within three years. Nunzio Laurenziello, who is leading the strategy, tells us why.

Insurance companies like the Italian giant are capitalising on institutional demand for real estate lending strategies.

The joint venture partners expect to hold a second close for their third senior property credit vehicle by December, targeting €400m.

The asset management firm has raised €250m for its maiden property debt fund and has deployed €180m across six loans in France, the Netherlands, Spain and Italy.

The Italian insurer is planning to open the platform to third-party investors and raise an additional €500m over the next two years.

The lure of debt to investors, the evolution of lending products and the need for greater emphasis on ESG were among the topics discussed at our sister title’s conference.
