Schroders launches semi-liquid global real estate fund

Schroders Capital has launched a Global Real Estate Total Return (GRETR) fund, the latest in its growing suite of semi-liquid funds.

The fund will provide access to Schroders’ best risk-adjusted real estate strategies, including direct investments, alongside minority allocations to public real estate equity and higher yielding real estate debt.

It will be managed by Kieran Farrelly, head of real estate solutions, and portfolio manager, Yim-Mei Liew, but will draw on the expertise of the whole global real estate investment platform.

Schroders Capital‘s semi-liquid series was launched in 2019 and also offers three existing private equity strategies. It is currently more than US$1 billion in size.

Farrelly said: “The GRETR fund will enable a wide range of investors to gain exposure to a selected portfolio of compelling global real estate opportunities through an efficient ‘one-stop’ solution.

“Investors will be able to access the breadth of Schroders Capital’s institutional real estate platform and investment opportunities sourced by Schroders Capital’s entrepreneurial investment teams on the ground in major markets.”
