With the popularity of the Asia Pacific non-listed real estate market continuing to increase, it is timely to assess how much capital is entering the market and what this figure represents on a global basis.

The Capital Raising Survey was first launched in 2014. This survey gives an insight into capital raising activities within the non-listed real estate industry by region, product type and investment strategy. The non-listed real estate products include separate accounts, joint ventures, club deals, funds of funds and non-listed real estate debt products. The report offers detailed insights into global and regional capital raising figures.

The 2019 survey attracted a record number of participants with 203 fund managers globally completing the questionnaire, a 16% increase compared to 2018 when 175 fund managers responded to the survey. 78.8% of those surveyed raised a combined US$193.7 billion for investment into the real estate industry throughout 2018.  The Asia Pacific region attracted US$26.9 billion of equity, a slight increase to the previous years’ figure of US$26.2 billion.
