An institutional investor based in the Middle East has used IPE’s Discovery* platform to announce it is conducting research on global REITs through an open-ended pooled fund.
According to search DS-2621, the investor – which has earmarked $120m (€100m) for a potential investment – is calling for interested parties to submit different strategies by 22 September, 5pm UK time.
Participating asset management firms will need a minimum track record of five years and will need to respond directly via the Discovery to register interest.
*Definition of Discovery: Pre-RFI tool which enables institutional asset owners to carry out a preliminary search for managers active in a particular asset class or region. Asset owners can also use this tool to research an asset class they are looking at for the first time. Discovery is free-to-view so payment only applies if you decide to respond.
