OneLife is participating in the MIPIM (“Marché International des Professionnels de l’IMmobilier”) in Cannes this week. This is a world leading property event where the most influential international property players come together for 4 days of networking and learning.
From an investment perspective, the real estate sector has become very attractive in today’s economy. As part of the so-called “non-traditional assets”, real estate proves to be a key strategic element against a backdrop of low interest rates.
Since the early nineties, Luxembourg has become a key location for international real estate investments. After the reform of the specialised investment fund (SIF) act in 2007 which marked the starting point for a new dimension growth, the RAIF structure launched in 2016 allows real estate fund issuers to set up Luxembourg-domiciled funds that are not subject to regulatory approval by the Luxembourg supervisory authority (CSSF). This option significantly enhanced the time-to-market for new fund launches.
Conscious of this potential and the increasing demand of sophisticated investors in their wealth management strategies, OneLife values and has enhanced its solutions on non-traditional assets as part of a life assurance contract. This includes unregulated real estate, private equity, securitisation and alternative funds. Non-traditional assets require specific procedures in terms of both acceptance and valuation in order to offer a secure framework: this is where expertise is paramount. Our dedicated teams are here to advise and support clients in global wealth solutions no matter how diverse the portfolio, providing a clear overview of their portfolio as a combination of both traditional and non-traditional asset classes.
