Japan recovery

The results of the ANREV Annual Index show that Asia Pacific non-listed real estate funds performance has improved compared to 2012. The All Funds Index returned 9.2% in 2013 compared with 7.7% in 2012.

Looking at styles, opportunity funds outperformed core funds in 2013 at 10.9% and 9.1% respectively driven by very strong performance in Q4 2013.

In terms of geographies, single country funds in Japan and China were strong performers compared to multi country funds (7.2%): Japan funds returned 9.4% compared to a negative return in 2012 (-1.0%) and China funds returned 13.7% compared to a 1.6% return in 2012. Note that the coverage of China funds improved as we have now 10 funds included in the sub-index.

In this release, we have introduced two new sub-indices, by structure and by sector. The structure subindices shows that open end funds outperformed closed end funds in 2013, which was not the case in 2012. And single sector funds outperformed multi sector funds in 2013.”

The European non-listed property funds industry is laying the groundwork for an improved focus on sustainability. This report takes GRESB's data on non-listed real estate funds and analyses their sustainability performance, with a particular focus on European funds, to provide more tailored information and guidance to our members on this topic.

As part of its commitment to supporting its members to improve their sustainability efforts, INREV is a partner in the Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB), a global consortium of institutional investors and real estate industry associations committed to assessing the sustainability performance of real estate portfolios. One of GRESB’s main initiatives is its annual survey, which provides focus and direction for the real estate sector by benchmarking sustainability performance. The results provide an overview of sustainability activities and trends in global real estate for both the public and private sector.

This report aims to provide insight into current market practices in investor reporting across non-listed real estate vehicles investing in Europe, and specifically the extent to which reporting complies with the requirements and recommendations of the INREV Guidelines.
