Multiplex European Property Fund (Fund) is a property trust listed on the ASX (ASX code: MUE) which owns a 94.9% interest in 67 property assets located throughout Germany. The properties are diversified by asset class, tenant and geographical location.
Fund Objective and Investment Strategy
The Fund's objective is to offer investors attractive income distributions and the potential for capital growth over the medium to long term through a stable and diversified property portfolio in Europe.
While the Initial Properties are located within Germany, the Responsible Entity will continue to look for investment properties both within Germany and across Europe to further diversify the assets of the Fund. New investment opportunities may be considered if they are expected to deliver appropriate returns to unitholders.
The focus will be on assets within the retail, office and industrial asset classes but the Fund may make investments outside these sectors in alternative asset classes such as residential, health and hospitality sectors.
