ANREV has launched the Q2 2021 IRR Index by vintage. The IRR Index measures performance of value added and opportunistic non-listed closed end funds investing in Asia Pacific.

The Q2 2021 sample of the ANREV IRR index includes 80 funds.

We welcome any questions or comments - please email Daisy Huang or Justin Wong.

In 2021, Aurex Group in partnership with ANREV launched an Asia Pacific (APAC) Compensation & Employee Sentiments Survey for the Unlisted Real Estate Investment Management industry.

The study is the first to be conducted in the geography for this specific professional group and aims to provide a resource for further discussion and understanding of differing compensation and sentiment trends.

Welcome to the September 2021 update of the Global Real Estate Fund Index (GREFI). It is an index showing the performance of non-listed real estate funds on a global basis and is created by ANREV, INREV and NCREIF. This publication includes performance figures up to end of Q2 2021.

The GREFI All Funds Index was updated for the first time on a quarterly basis following the second quarterly release of the ANREV Index for Q1 2014. From Q1 2014 onwards, GREFI has been updated 12 weeks after the quarter end. This index release follows the same structure of previous releases. All numbers are also available in an Excel file.

The history of the Global Real Estate Fund Index (GREFI) has been extended to Q1 2005, now offering almost 15 years of performance across all regions.

In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, ANREV has conducted an additional survey investigating funds’ valuations under COVID-19.

The ‘Impact of COVID-19 on valuations’ survey was distributed to fund managers during the data collection of ANREV Quarterly Index Q2 2021. They were asked to fill in the extra questionnaire to look into the impact of the “Material Uncertainty clause” on asset valuations, suspension of trading and status of rent collection.
