Why Fidelity for real estate?

Our real estate team offers a proven track record and a distinct investment approach. With a Europe-wide team, we’re able to take a hands-on approach to investment management, delivering a trusted service for investors.

Our investment philosophy is guided by three core principles:

A strong focus on income

Income is the most important component of total return from real estate. With volatility management and downside risk at the forefront of our investment process, we seek to achieve sustainable capital growth by enhancing our income streams.

Bottom-up stock selection

Our experienced investment team analyzes every property on its individual merits. Rigorous analysis of tenant covenant strength, market research and our award-winning proprietary risk-management systems enhance our stock-picking approach.

Active management

Active asset management is essential to truly unlocking the value potential of a real estate investment and delivering strong performance for our clients. We maintain a strong focus on our tenants and buildings, constantly trying to find opportunities to improve income and capture sustainable capital growth.
