Investment strategy
The focus of BPT Optima is on prime commercial
properties primarity within the retail segment, but with office and
logistics as secondary investment targets. The fund invests solely
in the three Baltic countries and Poland.
BPT Optima is focused on a "value added" strategy of
acquisition, development and refurbishment of commercial properties
(or portfolios of commercial properties) that are strategically
well-located in the selected regions. The fund seeks to attract
leading international and local tenants and to secure leaseholds of
at least 5-10 years.
The underlying fundamental is to utilize the steady yield
compression (capital growth) in the selected real estate
markets. As yields converge towards Western European levels,
the market is expected to show capital gains.
Structure
BPT Optima is registered in Luxembourg as a SICAR
fund.
