LAGRANGE Financial Advisory GmbH
LAGRANGE Financial Advisory GmbH: Banner Year for Lagrange: c. 488 Million € in Fund Capital Brokered for Real Estate Special AIF as well as for Secondaries, Infrastructure and Private Debt Segments
– Increase in brokered fund capital by more than 5 percent compared to 2020 – Demand was strongest for the main types of use such as residential real estate, care home real estate and retail real estate for non-discretionary goods, but also for lucrative niche segments such as European parking real estate – Growth in the area of secondary-market transactions with fund shares traded between institutional investors – Increasing demand in the areas of infrastructure and private debt – Widely spread universe of institutional investors, with 28 transactions plus subsequent increases so far
Over the past seven years-meaning in the time since the company entered the special AIF segment-Lagrange succeeded in raising c. 2.9 billion euros in fund capital among various institutional investor groups for its clients. None of the 29 investment funds has reported a negative rate of return during the financial year following the fund launch. Dr. Sven Helmer, Managing Director of Lagrange, said: “The development in the course of the past year reaffirmed the trend that had begun to emerge as early as 2020: The interest among institutional investors to buy into real estate special AIF remains as strong as ever. Worth noting in this context is that, in addition to the keenly sought-after main types of use like residential real estate, care home real estate and retail real estate for non-discretionary goods, the focus has shifted to include lucrative niche segments such as European parking real estate, for instance. Demand for the trading of fund shares via secondary-market transactions has also visibly increased among institutional investors, and this is true both for the buyer and the seller side. Sellers like to use the secondary market to adjust their strategies, whereas buyers look for possibilities to expand their real estate exposure without having to wait out an investment period.” Monika Bednarz, Director of Lagrange, said: “One of the defining trends of 2021 was the growing interest in the subject areas of private debt and infrastructure, as demand for these has also picked up momentum, just like demand for classic property fund investments. Many investors are convinced that these asset classes present attractive opportunities as well, especially with respect to inflation protection and as hedging mechanism against potential lending rate hikes.” Company Contact: Press Contact: About Lagrange Financial Advisory GmbH End of Media Release Issuer: LAGRANGE Financial Advisory GmbH Key word(s): Real estate
