1 1. Executive Summary - Sample Pages Executive Summary Fig. A: Funds of Funds Fundraising, May 2010 Real estate funds of funds play an important role in the private real estate market as a whole, acting as key investors for fund managers and allowing smaller institutions, which lack the capital or resources to construct their own fund portfolios, to gain real estate exposure diversifi ed by strategy, geography and property type. Fundraising for funds of funds has declined since the onset of the global economic downturn. Funds of funds raised just $1.7 billion in 2009, compared with $4.1 billion in 2008 and $4.6 billion in This decline is in line with the whole private real estate fund market, which saw a signifi cant fall in the amount of capital raised in The fi rst real estate funds of funds date back to the late 1990s, but it was not until several years later that a signifi cant industry began to emerge. Preqin has identifi ed 57 fi rms active in the fund of funds market, managing a total of 119 funds of funds. All 57 managers are profi led in detail within the body of the 2010 Preqin Private Equity Real Estate Fund of Funds Review. There was some consolidation in the fund of funds market during In November 2009, Aviva Investors Real Estate Multi-Manager announced it had taken over the management of two real estate fund of funds previously managed by BlackRock Realty and in July 2009, Capital Dynamics assumed the management of HRJ Capital s fund of funds business, including its private equity real estate fund of funds platform. There is potential for further consolidation as the larger players within the market look to cement their positions as market leaders. Diversity in the Fund of Funds Market Funds of funds are key investors for managers raising their fi rst vehicle, as they will typically have the knowledge and resources to carry out the extra due diligence required on this type of investment. 73% of funds of funds surveyed do invest with fi rst-time fund managers, while a further 17% would consider doing so. There are several funds of funds designed solely to provide exposure to emerging managers. These include AVP Advisors $400 million American Value Partners Fund I, which targeted newer managers that demonstrated a competitive advantage in a specifi ed property type or geographic market. Hawkeye Partners also targets newer fi rms, although its investments are typically structured as joint ventures rather than fund commitments. In contrast, some fi rms aim to give smaller investors exposure to some of the largest fi rms in the industry. The larger minimum commitment size required would normally stop many smaller institutions from committing to these funds. Syndicated Equities Syndicated Access Fund II has committed to funds managed by Blackstone Real Estate Advisors, Morgan Stanley Real Estate and RREEF Real Estate. Granite Hall Partners SVP RE I has a similar approach and its underlying investments included commitments to Walton Street Capital, Carlyle Group and JP Morgan Asset Management Preqin Ltd 1

2 1. Executive Summary - Sample Pages There have also been a number of funds of funds launched with a specifi c regional focus and most notably, a number of funds of funds target Asian real estate funds. Aberdeen Property Investors raised $600 million for AIPP Asia in 2007 and closed AIPP Asia Select in Q with commitments of $221 million. CBRE Investors Global Multi Manager s CBRE Asia Alpha Plus Fund raised $250 million and invests in value added and opportunistic funds across the Asia Pacifi c region. Franklin Templeton Investments raised $383 million for its Franklin Templeton Asian Real Estate Fund and began raising capital for Franklin Templeton Asian Real Estate Fund 2 in the fi rst quarter of Proportion of Funds of Funds Fig. B: Underlying Strategies Targeted by Funds of Funds As a result of the increased interest in distressed real estate and real estate debt, a number of funds of funds focused on this sector have been launched. Metropolitan Real Estate Equity Management raised $162 million for Metropolitan Real Estate Partners 2008 Distressed Co-Investment and is marketing MREP Distressed Strategies II. Investors Diversifi ed Realty is marketing the Investors Diversifi ed Realty Fund, which will allocate its initial capital to funds that are originating fi rst mortgages and mezzanine debt positions. In terms of structure, 82% of funds of funds are private closed vehicles. A further 15% are private open-ended funds. These include Henderson Indirect Property Fund (Europe), a 450 million fund that targets underlying European core-plus, value added and opportunistic vehicles, and the 732 million ING Eurosiris Fund of Funds, which targets core and coreplus funds across Europe. There are also a small number of listed funds of funds that target underlying private equity real estate funds. These account for 3% of all funds of funds. Targeted Strategies Fig. B shows the underlying fund strategies that are targeted by funds of funds that closed in the period 2008 to May 2010, and those that are currently in market. This shows that fund of funds managers are altering their strategies in light of the opportunities within the current real estate market. While opportunistic and value added funds remain commonly targeted strategies, the proportion of funds targeting these strategies has fallen. In contrast, the turbulent market conditions have led to an increase in the proportion of funds of funds seeking to invest in distressed vehicles. 52% of funds of funds in market plan to make this type of commitment. Furthermore, many fund of fund managers now believe that the best market opportunities are presenting themselves in core and core-plus investments. This explains the 20 percentage point increase in funds of funds investing in core-plus vehicles, as investors seek to reduce the level of risk in their portfolios and target returns through income, rather than appreciation. Fund of funds managers were largely inactive during the past 12 months. They were either reluctant to commit before the market bottomed out or delayed new investments at the request of investors keen to avoid additional capital calls. Many fi rms do have capital available to invest and most expect to be far more active in the coming year. Funds of Funds as Investment Consultants Fund of funds managers do not just manage the 2010 Preqin Ltd 2

3 1. Executive Summary - Sample Pages capital raised through funds of funds, many also act as investment consultants to a number of investors and allocate to funds through managed mandates and separate accounts. These fi rms are therefore responsible for an even greater proportion of the capital that is allocated to the private equity real estate asset class. Many manage segregated multi-manager mandates on behalf of institutional investors, creating a real estate fund portfolio based on the investor s geographic preferences and appetite for risk. Aviva Investors Real Estate Multi-Manager is one such fi rm. It has invested over $6 billion in private real estate funds on behalf of its institutional clients. Fig. C: Breakdown of the Fund of Funds Investor Universe by Assets Under Management Who Invests in Funds of Funds? Fund of funds investments are a popular option for small- to medium-sized investors. Fig. C shows that 76% of investors in funds of funds have a total asset base of less than $10 billion. 41% have total assets of between $1 billion and $9.9 billion, with 35% managing less than $1 billion in assets. However, it is not exclusively the smallest investors that commit to funds of funds. Larger investors may commit to these vehicles to gain exposure to a market they have little knowledge of or a region that they might not be able to reach through direct fund commitments. Diversifi cation is one of the key reasons investors commit to funds of funds. One commitment provides the investor with a fund portfolio diversifi ed by geography, strategy and property type. This is achieved at a fraction of the cost required if the investor was to invest in individual funds. The due diligence and research is all carried out by the fund of funds manager, which is likely to have a greater degree of expertise and contacts than most smaller investors. Investor Appetite Market conditions have led to many investors halting their real estate investments, while small- to mediumsized institutions, which invest in funds of funds, have been affected by the decline in property valuations. Many investors that had hoped to return to the market this year are postponing further, and many are as yet undecided as to when they will resume commitments. Most investors are not abandoning the fund of funds route however, and will continue to make this type of commitment. The 2010 Preqin Private Equity Real Estate Fund of Funds Review includes profi les for over 100 investors that have an interest in funds of funds. Outlook The real estate fund of funds market has grown into an important part of the private real estate fund industry as a whole. The industry saw significant growth between 2005 and 2007, with funds of funds raising increased amounts of capital was a difficult year for fundraising. The aggregate capital raised fell to $1.7 billion, just 37% of the capital raised in 2007, and seven funds of funds made their first investments in 2009, the lowest number since Raising capital for new funds of funds during 2009 was an extremely challenging prospect in a market in which most investors were extremely cautious and reluctant to make new fund commitments. As a result some firms were forced to abandon their funds, while those firms that did close funds often raised less capital than they originally targeted Preqin Ltd 3

4 1. Executive Summary - Sample Pages The fundraising market remains extremely competitive, as many investors remain reluctant to make new commitments. These institutions still see the value of funds of funds and are likely to return to the market, but it may not be until 2011 that the rate of fundraising improves. There has been some consolidation within the fund of funds market and this is a trend which seems likely to continue as the larger fi rms seek to further cement their position as leaders within the industry. Despite the slow fundraising environment, funds of funds do have capital available to commit and while they may have spent the past 12 months on the sidelines, most have indicated to Preqin that they will look to make new investments in the coming year. These fi rms are experienced investors and are adapting their approach in order to take advantage of the prevailing opportunities in the current market. Fund of funds managers that invest wisely in the coming months could well secure strong returns for their investors.

7 3. History and Development of Industry - Sample Pages fundraising market resulted in fewer funds with 2008 and 2009 vintages. 14 funds were launched in 2008 and seven in Fig. 3.7 illustrates the share of the overall private equity real estate fundraising market that fund of funds are responsible for. Funds of funds account for a relatively small percentage of the market, accounting for 3% of capital raised in 2006, 2008 and 2009, and 4% in It also shows that the decline in fundraising that fund of funds experienced in 2009 was in line with the private equity real estate fundraising market as a whole. Fig. 3.10: Proportion of Capital Raised for Funds of Funds by Fund Manager Experience, May 2010 Number of Funds Managed Geographic Focus Between 2008 and May 2010, 15 North Americafocused funds of funds reached a fi nal close, receiving aggregate commitments of $2.6 billion. The largest of these was Goldman Sachs Real Estate Partners, which closed with commitments of $708 million. The fund provides seed money to real estate specialists that have not previously managed signifi cant amounts of third-party capital. Nine European funds of funds reached a fi nal close, raising an aggregate $2.4 billion. Notable Europe-focused funds to close included Eurozone Fund of Funds, a 286 million fund of funds managed by Aberdeen Property Investors. It predominantly invests in specialist sector or location specifi c funds with a value added strategy and a medium risk-and-return profi le. Six Asia and Rest of World funds reached a fi nal close, raising $1.1 billion. The largest of these was the $383 million Franklin Templeton Asian Real Estate Fund. Fund Manager Location All funds of funds to close in the period 2008 May 2010 were raised by fi rms headquartered in either North America or Europe. $3.1 billion was raised by 17 funds managed by North America-headquartered fi rms, with the same amount of capital raised by 13 funds managed by European fi rms. There are currently very few fi rms based outside North America and Europe that are managing funds of funds. This could be an area which sees growth in the future as private equity real estate markets develop in these regions. Manager Experience Of the 30 funds of funds that closed in the period 2008 to May 2010, 10 were fi rst-time offerings. First-time funds are important to the fund of funds market as a whole and were responsible for 27% of capital raised during this period. Five funds of funds that closed were the second or third offering from their managers. These were responsible for 15% of capital raised. 14 funds of funds were raised by fi rms managing four or more vehicles, accounting for 58% of capital raised during this period. More experienced fi rms are typically able to raise larger funds. Funds raised by fi rms managing four or more vehicles had an average fund size of $277 million, compared with an average fund size of $166 million for fi rst-time funds. Average Fund Size The average size of real estate funds of funds grew signifi cantly from $125 million in 2005 to $307 million in In recent years, fund sizes have declined as the slow fundraising environment has meant fund managers have found it harder to secure investor 2010 Preqin Ltd 7

9 10. Funds of Funds as Investors - Sample Pages Funds of Funds as Investors Fig. 10.1: Breakdown of Funds of Funds Managers by Region Fund of funds managers remain an important investor type in private real estate funds, accounting for 5% of all private equity real estate investors. Funds of funds provide a platform for smaller, less experienced investors to access the real estate asset class and gain a diversifi ed property portfolio through a single commitment. With the economic downturn, funds of funds may be seen as a less risky alternative to investments in traditional private real estate vehicles, as such vehicles are better equipped to mitigate levels of risk. Fundraising for funds of funds peaked in 2007, when 16 vehicles raised $4.6 billion of capital. Funds of funds raised just $1.7 billion in 2009, and this decrease was indicative of the real estate market as a whole. Funds of funds continue to provide an important source of capital to the market. Furthermore, funds of funds provide a means for investors to access areas of the market they would otherwise have diffi culty gaining exposure to. The experience and resources of fund of funds managers allows them to perform extensive due diligence and invest in niche vehicles, such as those targeting emerging markets or fi rst-time funds. Fund of funds managers also provide an important function for the real estate industry by acting as investment consultants or managing mandates for institutional investors, therefore infl uencing an even greater share of capital entering the market. Regional Breakdown Fig shows the regional breakdown of fund of funds managers. Europe is the location of 49% of fund of fund managers, with some of the most signifi cant fi rms located here. Aberdeen Property Investors manages eight fund of funds vehicles, through its Indirect Investment Management division. The fi rm is currently raising capital for Eurozone Fund of Funds II, which is looking to create a diversifi ed portfolio of funds with investments in property assets located mainly within the Eurozone countries. North America is the location of 47% of fund managers, with Metropolitan Real Estate Equity Management one of the most signifi cant managers from this region. Metropolitan has closed 10 funds of funds to date, and held a fi nal close for Metropolitan Real Estate Partners International III in Q Asia and Rest of World is the headquarters of just two real estate fund of funds managers. Asia in particular has attracted signifi cant investment from funds of funds seeking to access the region, but few fi rms headquartered in Asia have raised their own vehicles. The exception is United Arab Emirates-based The National Investor, which held a fi nal close for a fund of funds vehicle in Portfolio Diversification Funds of funds provide a unique way for investors to create diversifi ed property portfolios. Smaller investors, without the expertise to reach areas of the market they are not familiar with, are able to gain access to a broad range of strategies and locations 2010 Preqin Ltd 9

Finnish private pension plan Kirkon Eläkerahasto (Church Central Fund) uses fund of funds to access property markets across Europe. It committed to a European fund of funds in Q and may commit to another vehicle in the next 12 months. Fig. 17.3: Breakdown of Fund of Funds Investor Universe by Type Foundations and insurance companies both account for 9% of investors that have an interest in, or allocation to funds of funds. These vehicles are very important to Australian superannuation schemes, which account for 7% of fund of funds investors. Other investor types such as investment companies, government agencies and sovereign wealth funds account for 6% of fund of funds investors. Breakdown of Investors by Location Fig shows that almost half of the investors that invest in, or are looking to allocate to funds of funds are based in Europe and 40% are from North America. This is different to the make up of investors in private equity real estate vehicles, as 58% of investors in direct funds are North American institutions, with 31% from Europe. It is likely that the proportion of European-based investors is higher for fund of funds because it is typically the smaller-sized pension funds that seek such vehicles, and North American pension plans have a larger total assets base than European pension funds. 11% of fund of funds investors are based in Asia and Rest of World; this is identical to the proportion of Asia and Rest of World investors in the private equity real estate asset class. Fig. 17.4: Breakdown of Fund of Funds Investor Universe by Location In terms of country the US is home to 38% of all fund of funds investors, making it the most populated country in terms of number of investors active in funds of funds. This is unsurprising given the high volume of real estate fund investors based in the US, compared Preqin Ltd 13

The public pension fund has invested in two fund of funds vehicles managed by Metropolitan Real Estate Equity Management. Nebraska invested a combined USD 30 million in the two vehicles; which invest in core-plus, value added and opportunistic underlying funds targeting domestic markets. As of Q1 2010, the public pension fund was yet to formulate its investment policy for 2010 and beyond, but was expecting to invest on an opportunistic basis across the risk/return spectrum, investing in funds ranging from core-plus to opportunistic in strategy. Nebraska may also seek to invest in funds with distressed or debt strategies, believing these markets to be of increasing importance to the private real estate market. Nebraska Investment Council has not ruled out the possibility of investing in real estate funds of funds in the future. A commitment to a fund of funds vehicle would give the pension fund the opportunity to gain exposure to the range of fund strategies that it is interested in.

It felt that it would invest in a real estate fund of funds vehicle targeting Asia. It had not decided on the amount of capital it would commit to that fund of funds, but hoped to invest with experienced managers with strong track records. The pension fund has committed to a number of European funds of funds in the past, but will only use funds of funds to access Asia from now on. It uses funds of funds to gain exposure to markets it is relatively unfamiliar with. The pension fund will focus on the terms and conditions of the vehicle and hopes that the interests of the fund manager and investors will be better aligned and the fee structure is more favourable to the investors than in the past.
