Swiss Life REF (CH) Swiss Properties is examining the purchase of a high-value real estate portfolio worth about CHF 500 million. A capital increase is planned for December 2018 to finance the acquisition.
The real estate fund Swiss Life REF (CH) Swiss Properties was successfully launched on 2 November 2015. The earnings and price development of the properties and the expansion of the portfolio have resulted in a strong performance by the fund. Its focus is on residential real estate in Swiss cities and their suburbs. It also invests in commercial properties in central locations. The real estate portfolio contained 48 properties with a market value of around CHF 665 million as at the end
of June 2018.
The acquisition of a high-value property portfolio worth about CHF 500 million is being examined in order to continue the successful strategy of qualitative growth. Swiss Life Asset Management Ltd has been authorised by FINMA, in conformity with Art. 63 CISA, paragraph 4, to acquire the portfolio, which is currently in the possession of Swiss Life Ltd. The issue of new units is planned for the end of December 2018 to finance the property portfolio. Investors benefit from broader diversification by expanding the portfolio. The target portfolio boasts very high-quality locations and properties and generates a large part of the rental revenue from residential use.
The specific conditions of the planned capital increase will be announced in autumn.
