Current Funds
Fortius Active Property Trust No. 1
The Fortius Active Property Trust No. 1 (FAPT1) was closed in April 2006 with $403m in investor commitments. FAPT1 was open to wholesale investors only.
The fund purpose is to invest in a diverse property portfolio of buildings and/or land that offers capital growth and some income over the medium term by targeting properties where superior returns can be identified through Active Management strategies not often recognised and exploited by other fund managers.
Assets are generally repositioned to investment grade. Once repositioned each asset is held in a separate trust allowing for flexibility to hold over an indefinite time period as Core.
The Fund made 6 investments in 2006 and 2007 that have yielded 9 assets. To date 3 assets in the Fund have been realised.
