  • The industry looks for common metrics to report and compare performance of real estate investment vehicles that operate across different regions of the globe.

    However, in practice we use different NAV calculations in different regions. To better understand the differences between IFRS, INREV NAV and US GAAP Fair Value NAV a comparison and first gap analysis was developed by INREV, ANREV, the NCREIF and PREA Reporting Standards.

    The resulting short paper explains the main differences when calculating NAVs across regions and the potential impact of these differences.

    This is an initiative from the Global Standards Steering Committee

  • When investors perform due diligence over prospective and current investments, related party transactions and fees are often key focus areas, particularly over “hidden fees” or debatable fees which may not be apparent pre-investment.

    From a documentation perspective, governing documents are often vague or silent on how non-standard costs should be treated. As such, it is often left to the manager’s discretion to decide whether certain costs could or should be borne by the manager or by one or a combination of funds, managed accounts or other vehicles. This in turns may lead to conflicts of interest over fee allocation amongst different relevant mandates, especially if some are in promote/carry positions and some are under-water.

    On 15th and 16th August 2019, ANREV hosted two round tables in Singapore and Hong Kong respectively, where a number of managers, fund administrators and advisors sat together and shared their experiences to identify current industry practices and learn from their peers in how they are meet investor demand for fairer and more transparent expense policies.

  • The ANREV / INREV Management Fees and Terms Comparison Study compares the fees and cost structures of non listed real estate investment funds in Asia Pacific and Europe with a focus on total expense ratios (TERs) and real estate expense ratios (REERs). The report is based on the regional studies conducted by ANREV and INREV during 2018.

    Some of the key findings identified in the report are as follow:

    • TERs before and after performance fees are higher in Asia Pacific than in Europe
    • Core funds in Asia Pacific have lower TERs than in Europe
    • REERs are on average lower in Asia Pacific than in Europe
