HDG Mansur has added two funds to its roster. The HDGM International Property Fund is modelled after HDG Mansur’s HSBC Amanah Global Properties Income Fund launched in 2002. This closed-end income fund will invest in a global portfolio of properties initially targeted in markets throughout the US and Europe. Denominated in US dollars, the fund’s core investment strategy will be to invest in single- and multi-tenant properties leased to major corporations with stable or improving credit. The fund will be targeted to high-net-worth individuals and institutions and will aim to raise in excess of $200 million.

The second fund, the HDGM Opportunity Fund I, is a closed-end real estate fund, designed for investors seeking opportunistic returns and a strategically diversified portfolio of assets that will capitalize on the deteriorating credit market conditions. The fund will invest in strategically identified high-growth markets in the US. Also targeted to high-net-worth individuals and institutions, the fund will aim to raise $350 million.

HDG Mansur has managed, developed or advised on $5.8 billion in real estate investment on behalf of private clients and has $2.6 billion of real estate assets under management, including the world’s largest open-ended Shariah-compliant fund.
