More precisely, the tender is related to the awarding of two (2) global unlisted real estate mandates to be actively managed and with the objective to generate long term stable performances and regular cash flows through the acquisition of units or shares of unlisted core and, in subsidiary order, value-add real estate UCIs investing in internationally diversified immovable property.

The maximum duration of the mandates shall be ten (10) years. Proposals will be selected on the basis of the economically most advantageous proposal.
