#69 Alistair Ennever, Head of Europe at Vestas Investment Management

Established in 2010 Vestas Investment Management invests capital, raised from single or multiple investors into global real estate – throughout Asia, Europe and the Americas.

It does this through a variety of products that target Core, Core+, Value Add & Opportunistic returns by investing in Office, Retail, Hotel, Multifamily & Logistics assets. In Europe they focus on Office and Logistics assets.

Alistair set up the European business in 2022 and is responsible for managing a portfolio valued at more than €3bn euros. He was previously Head of Industrial & Logistics – Europe at Savills Investment Management and has worked at LFF Real Estate Partners, Chapman Petrie and Colliers.

I sat down with Alistair to discuss a broad range of subjects, which covered some of the following

topics:

 

* How he got into real estate

* Cultural nuances working with Korean Capital

* Fund, JV and separate account structures

* Who is driving the ESG agenda in sheds?

* Plans to grow the business

* Big shed, renaissance?

 

Oh, and one last question - who are the People, what Property, and in which Place would Alistair

invest should he have £500m of capital at his disposal.
