ATLANTA, March 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Invesco Real Estate, the $88 billion global real estate investment platform of Invesco Ltd., accelerated its lending activity in 2024 with loan commitments across North America and Europe totaling $3 billion in committed capital across 45 unique loans. Multifamily and industrial represented the largest areas of conviction for the group in 2024 with 96% of transactions falling into those sectors.
"We have navigated market cycles for more than 40 years, expanding into new sectors and geographies to uncover attractive opportunities across the real estate investment spectrum," said Bert Crouch, Head of North America, Invesco Real Estate. "We're pleased to reach this milestone that speaks to the strength of our platform, our deep borrower relationships, and Invesco's commitment to innovation in real estate finance."
Finishing a strong year, the team closed $1 billion of loan commitments in 4Q24 alone across 15 floating rate senior loans in North America and one whole loan facility in Europe. In the aggregate, Invesco Real Estate originated seven loans secured by industrial properties (three of which are cross-collateralized), five loans secured by multifamily properties, and four cross-collateralized loans secured by self-storage properties.
"Our approach to the business continues to be grounded in our key principles: a focus on our clients, a focus on our people, and, as it pertains to our investment parameters, our 'credit-over-yield' mandate," said Charlie Rose, Global Head of Credit, Invesco Real Estate. "Our expertise across the capital structure, sectors, and regions helps inform our investment strategy. We focus on sectors that both we and our borrowers have the strongest convictions around, with multifamily and industrial rising to the top as the most attractive property types in 2024."
