Investment strategy

The Fund invests in a balanced mix of Experience and Convenience retail, ensuring diversification and resilience in a dynamic market. Experience retail focuses on prime high-street locations in the Netherlands' largest shopping cities, where strong foot traffic and consumer demand drive long-term value. Convenience retail is anchored by dominant supermarkets in high-catchment areas, capitalizing on the stability of daily necessities and essential retail.

To optimize portfolio performance, the Fund actively manages its assets through acquisitions, upgrades, and strategic divestments. In Experience retail, we focus on larger assets with lower rental risk, while in Convenience retail, we enhance scale and efficiency through supermarket expansions and strategic repositioning. Sustainability remains central to our approach, with targeted investments to reduce energy use and CO₂ emissions, aligning with CRREM pathways and the goal of achieving a net-zero carbon portfolio by 2045.

The Retail Fund has been awarded with the MSCI award for best performing real estate fund in the Netherlands five years in a row (2019-2023).
