CBRE Investment Management (“CBRE IM”), on behalf of a fund sponsored by the firm (the “Fund”), has entered into €1 billion of new unsecured fund-level finance facilities as part of a revised debt strategy, supporting the Fund’s growth ambitions and allowing the Fund to diversify its capital stack.
The Fund is now supported by two sustainability-linked, flexible, unsecured fund level finance facilities: a €250 million revolving credit facility (RCF) to bridge equity and for general working capital purposes and a €300 million term loan facility to bridge medium-term debt to fund new acquisitions and developments. A third €450 million short-term bridge facility has been put in place as well. The three facilities have been provided by five strategic banking partners ABN AMRO, BNP Paribas, CA-CIB, HSBC and ING on an equal 20% stake.
Unsecured fund level debt enables the Fund to access the flexibility needed to acquire, develop, dispose of, and manage assets. The new finance facilities have lighter covenants and reporting requirements making them more efficient to manage while offering competitive pricing compared to secured asset level debt.
Tom Berens, Senior Director, Team Lead Treasury & Debt Financing, CBRE IM, said: “Having obtained these new scalable, flexible finance facilities and cementing strategic banking partnerships with five all-round banks, we can take the next step in the evolution of the Fund, positioning it for growth while ensuring the financial structure is resilient and aligned with the Fund’s long-term sustainability strategy.”
