Who we are

We are a leading fund manager specialising in commercial real estate and private credit, with ~$7 billion in funds under management.

Through a range of tailored strategies, we provide institutional and sophisticated investors access to compelling risk-adjusted opportunities in Australia and New Zealand’s commercial real estate credit market.

Since inception in 2007, we have consistently delivered strong returns to investors through multiple market cycles. Our track record is why leading global institutions trust us with their capital – today, more than half our funds under management are institutional mandates.

Built on disciplined risk management, institutional-grade execution and unwavering capital preservation, our platform operates one of the region’s largest origination teams in Australia and New Zealand. We have cultivated deep networks that provide access to privileged deal flow and local market intelligence – driving outperformance across cycles.
