Swiss Prime Site Solutions to carry out two capital issues in Q2

The fund managers of SPSS IFC Commercial (focus on commercial real estate) and Akara Diversity PK (focus on residential and commercial real estate) are planning their next pre-right issues for the second quarter of 2023. The subscription period for both funds will begin on Monday, 8 May 2023 and end on Friday, 26 May 2023. The aim is for each fund to attract capital of about CHF 50 million. The issue date for the fund units will be 9 June 2023.

Existing investors will be able to exercise their subscription rights in respect of the capital increases. Investors in SPSS IFC will benefit from a discounted issue commission by means of pre-commitments before the start of the subscription period. Investors in Akara Diversity PK will have the opportunity to participate in the fund through declarations of intent on a first come, first served basis.

Use of the capital

The capital raised will be used mainly to expand the portfolio in line with the strategy. Exclusive transaction opportunities have already been secured. At the same time, new investors will also receive the opportunity to join the investor base. This is intended to further increase the liquidity of the shares.

Detailed information and live webcasts

Further information on the capital issues will be disclosed shortly before the beginning of the subscription period. There will also be two live webcasts:

SPSS IFC fund profile

The Swiss Prime Site Solutions Investment Fund Commercial invests directly in good to very good locations throughout Switzerland, primarily in commercial real estate. The investment focus is on broad diversification, high cash flow stability and economically established locations. The investment strategy’s countercyclical focus on commercial properties is proving shrewd and resilient amid high inflation, thanks to rent indexation. The indexing rate is 91% effective 31 January 2023. SPSS IFC is the direct owner of the real estate; as such, taxes are pre-paid by the fund. Thus, income and assets are tax-free to investors. The fund is aimed at qualified investors.

Akara Diversity PK fund profile

Akara Diversity PK is open to tax-exempt pension funds and social insurance and compensation funds registered in Switzerland. Investment funds may also invest if their investor base consists solely of the above-mentioned tax-exempt institutions domiciled in Switzerland. The valuation of the shares is based on the NAV without premiums/discounts, which reduces volatility. Investment is made in existing properties and development and construction projects with residential or commercial usage types (50%, ±15 percentage points) throughout Switzerland. It aims to achieve a steady and attractive distribution, long-term value growth and broad diversity. Most properties are held directly.
