Le mie ricette per la real estate communityMirabaud Asset Management is pleased to announce the closing of its Mirabaud Grand Paris strategy at €150m.
Assets were raised from large institutional and family office clients across Europe. Mirabaud Grand Paris is a unique private equity strategy investing with tier one real estate developers in France to capture opportunities from the current largest transport and urban development project in Europe: the ‘Grand Paris’ project.
By combining private equity with real estate, the strategy represents a unique opportunity for investors, allowing them to provide equity financing to real estate projects directly alongside developers. It offers investors privileged access to financing projects, as well as good risk diversification and significant visibility on returns. Mirabaud Asset Management acts as a financial partner for promoters, able to assess the risk profile of each project. By investing as far upstream as possible in real estate transactions, Mirabaud Asset Management allows promoters to finance the acquisition of land and secure their access to opportunities and volume of business. The strategy is managed by Olivier Seux, Head of Real Estate at Mirabaud Asset Management, alongside a dedicated team of real estate investment specialists. They partner with best-in-class tier one developers to acquire land or buildings to redevelop into commercial and residential projects, transforming underused plots into attractive assets, benefitting investors and tenants.
“After raising €150m, completing more than ten successful real estate deals and one exit, we are delighted to announce the final closing of the strategy”, says Olivier Seux, Head of Real Estate at Mirabaud Asset Management. “This is a huge achievement for all involved in the strategy and I am looking forward to continuing to build on this success.”
The French government has outlined a 30-year strategy to consolidate the areas around Paris into one vast conurbation of 7.5 million people connected by a €35bn infrastructure upgrade. This transformational undertaking, due to be completed in 2030, promises to revolutionise real estate in the French capital. The finished plans will reduce car use, improve connections and ease overcrowding – with stringent government energy efficiency regulations applied to all new buildings.
Sustainability is central to the project and to Mirabaud’s Grand Paris strategy, which is categorised as article 9 of the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR). After launching its first private equity strategy in 2017, Mirabaud Asset Management’s private assets capabilities has grown in status and recognition. Three successful fund launches have raised over €400m. Clients are also able to invest in commercial real estate and logistics buildings through pooled real estate club deals, attracting over €500m in investment, bringing total private assets to close to €1bn.
