Building on 30 years of property fund management experience, Grosvenor Fund Management was formally established in 2005 as a single international client facing business for third party funds. We offer a unified approach to fund management around the world focused on meeting the investment needs of our individual clients.
Presently, we work with 66 investors in 20 existing funds and separate investor accounts. The total value of our funds under management is £3.1bn (US$6.2bn).
We provide co-investment opportunities in pooled funds in selective international markets where we possess core skills, competencies and local knowledge. We are active in many parts of the world where we have proprietary assets, ranging from Europe to Asia and the USA. Our structure enables us to work in conjunction with the property teams in our regional operating companies and to build on the core skills of the Group.
Our strategy remains to offer investors a range of sector and regional specialist funds in markets where Grosvenor has local expertise that deliver attractive risk-adjusted total returns. We employ over 120 fund management professionals with local knowledge and skills providing investors with access to indirect local markets.
To meet our objectives we follow a research informed investment process. This draws together macroeconomic and local perspectives coupled with a clear investment strategy for each fund and a rigorous hurdle rate approach to stock selection.
Fundamental to our business approach is the creation of long-term successful partnerships, which depends upon close working relationships with all our investors and clients.
