Real Estate Fund

SiS REAL ESTATE OPPORTUNITY FUND

The SiS Real Estate Opportunity Fund (the Fund) is a private equity fund which offers accredited investors unique access to attractive real estate opportunities, allowing them to invest opportunistically with smaller denominations.

This represents a refreshing approach, as real estate private equity funds have traditionally drawn on capital from institutions and large private investors to invest in real estate opportunities which individual accredited investors typically do not have access to.

Adopting an opportunistic strategy for the Fund, SiSAM will target distressed or undervalued real estate assets arising from a softening property market and weakening global macroeconomic conditions. The Fund’s target assets would typically include high-end residential and commercial assets in Singapore and other key Asian cities.

The Fund is only for accredited investors.
