BEOS AG, one of Germany’s leading corporate real estate specialists, has launched its fifth corporate real estate fund with a total target volume of over €600m. The fund, BEOS Corporate Real Estate Fund Germany V (BEOS CREFG V), is being offered in partnership with Swiss Life KVG and is focused on investing in high-potential Core/Core+ industrial, logistics and production properties across Germany’s top seven cities and emerging growth markets.
The new special AIF, structured for institutional investors, has already secured capital commitments in the three-digit million euro range by the end of June and is currently assessing additional interest from investors. With an ambitious target of over 5% annual returns and a total return exceeding 6%, BEOS CREFG V presents an attractive opportunity in an uncertain economic climate. The fund also holds SFDR Article 8 status, meaning it integrates environmental and social characteristics into its investment framework, a factor increasingly sought after by ESG-conscious investors.
“With the latest version of BEOS Corporate Real Estate Fund Germany V, we are targeting investments in corporate real estate that have proven stable even in the challenging market phases of the past,” said Michael Kapler, Head of Portfolio Management and newly appointed Executive Board Member at BEOS AG, effective 1 July. “Attractive investment opportunities are already emerging in the current market environment, which we will carefully analyse and exploit over the long term. At the same time, we are pleased with the continued interest from further potential investors and are currently reviewing further enquiries from investors.”
BEOS CREFG V zeroes in on underappreciated yet high-performing assets such as industrial parks and warehouse/production properties. What sets this fund apart for investors and developers is its strategic focus on flex-use spaces that can be rapidly adapted to evolving industrial and logistical needs, a crucial advantage in a market where tenant diversification and future-proofing are key to long-term value. Furthermore, the fund aims to proactively manage energy transition risks by prioritising assets that support decarbonisation and energy efficiency improvements.
BEOS AG, which operates under the Swiss Life Asset Managers umbrella, contributes deep market knowledge, managing over 4.4million m² of mixed-use commercial space and €7.3bn in assets. Meanwhile, Swiss Life KVG serves as the AIFM, ensuring compliance, governance and risk oversight across the fund’s lifecycle. This blend of active asset management and institutional fund structuring has proved highly successful in previous BEOS fund generations.
Founded in 1997, BEOS AG continues to be a trusted name for German institutional investors. Its long-term value-add strategy, combined with a resilient asset class, positions BEOS CREFG V as a compelling opportunity in today’s real estate environment, especially for those seeking both return and resilience.
