Under the “RREEF” brand, the Deutsche Bank Group’s Real Estate Investment business has a significant worldwide presence providing real estate investment management services. In March 2003, total investment capital exceeded 6 trillion yen, making it the largest real estate investment manager in the world. We are involved across a wide range of investments, including commercial properties, residential real estate, real estate-related organizations, and property development projects.
Since its start in 1997, the operation in Japan is involved in purchasing real estate-secured loans from domestic financial institutions; purchasing properties; providing restructuring advice; investing in property development projects and in real estate-related firms; and arranging non-recourse loans. Recently in Japan, RREEF along with its partners, Mitsubishi Estate Co., Ltd. and Tokyu Land Corporation, acquired a portfolio of five properties from obligors under the administration of the Resolution and Collection Corporation (RCC). The transaction in part was financed by Global Real Estate Debt Markets, demonstrating the synergy of the Deutsche Bank Group platform in Japan.
