This study compares the fees associated with the management of non-listed real estate investment funds globally. The report is based on the regional studies conducted by Pension Real Estate Association (PREA) in the US, European Association for Investors in Non-listed Real Estate Vehicles (INREV) and Asian Association for Investors in Non-listed Real Estate Vehicles (ANREV) during spring and summer 2016.

The INREV and ANREV management fee and terms questionnaire was updated in January 2016 to reflect updates to the INREV Fee and Expense guideline module. Updates to the questionnaire are minor and largely reflect alignment in terminology with the INREV guidelines.

The document is a distillation of information provided to ANREV by non-listed property vehicles, as well as publicly available information of other non-listed property vehicles, in order to give a view on the size and composition of the Asia Pacific non-listed property funds market over a particular period of time.

• Three consecutive years of solid growth for funds of funds

• Fund of funds delivered double-digit returns in 2015

• Vehicles that are large, core in style or have a global mandate outperformed the rest

Three consecutive years of positive growth saw funds of funds achieve a solid double digit return of 18.7% in 2015.

In total, ANREV and INREV Funds of Funds Universes (‘Universe’) contains 65 funds of funds that are managed by 30 managers. Collectively these vehicles represent a total Net Asset Value (NAV) of $10.5 billion.  Eleven fund of funds indicated their preference to remain anonymous and therefore the online vehicles universe only shows 54 funds of funds.  Performance data was provided for 25 funds of funds managed by 11 fund of funds managers. 

The performance data presented in this report is not intended to serve as a benchmark and should be used for research and information purposes only.

This is the fourth study on the fees and terms of non-listed real estate funds investing in the Asia Pacific region. This annual project aims to increase the transparency of the fee structures and fee levels in funds, and to create a framework for the regular reporting of fees in funds. The project also aims to increase the understanding of the challenges and limitations the non-listed real estate fund industry faces in analysing and comparing fee structures and levels.

ANREV is pleased to present the results of its third global Investment Intentions Survey with a specific focus on non-listed real estate funds. The survey was conducted in conjunction with the European Association for Investors in Non-listed Real Estate Vehicles (INREV) and the Pension Real Estate Association (PREA). By joining the forces of all three organizations, the survey is able to present a truly global view on expected trends and investment intentions within the real estate industry. This is the ninth edition of the regional survey which attracted 221 respondents in Asia Pacific compared to 205 in 2015: 96 investors (44%), 14 fund of fund managers (6%) and 111 fund managers (50%).

Chapter 2 explores global real estate allocations, providing insight into investment trends globally, and is based on the full sample of respondents. This is a joint chapter that can also be found in the INREV and PREA 2015 Investment Intentions reports.

Chapters 3 through 6 focus on the Asia Pacific real estate market, including insights on preferred structures, markets, sectors, and styles. These chapters are based only on those investors, fund managers, and fund of fund managers who are already invested in the Asia Pacific market or intend to do so in the next two years.

In the final chapter, for the second time we have invited Real Capital Analytics (RCA) to present its analysis of the relationship between the predictions within ANREV Investment Intentions Survey 2015 and the investment activities that followed in the past year, using its database of global transactions in that particular year.
