Henderson Global Investors’ UK Retail Warehouse Fund was launched in July 2001, with less than £200 million of equity, to invest in leading UK retail warehouse parks over 10,000 square metres let to strong covenants on long leases and that offer opportunities to create or add value through active asset management. Since its launch, the fund has grown to more than £1.2 billion of assets under management. In 2006, investors agreed to extend the fund’s life by seven years to December 2015. The fund comprises 20 prime retail parks mainly in London and the south east.
