Advantages and Specifics of Qualified Investor Funds

Qualified Investor Funds (QIFs) deliver higher long-term returns compared to mutual funds. The ARETE INDUSTRIAL fund consistently ranks among the most stable and best-performing investment funds in the Czech Republic.

In an article for Wealth Magazine, Lubor Svoboda, co-founder of the investment and real estate group Arete, explains what it takes to establish a QIF, the benefits these funds offer compared to retail funds, and the specifics of a QIF investing in industrial real estate within a closed investment cycle. He also discusses the challenges the ARETE INDUSTRIAL fund has faced in recent years and reveals the group's plans for the fund in the coming years.

With real estate having undergone price corrections and inflation stabilizing, Arete is poised for further strategic acquisitions in the CEE region and Western Europe, supported by favorable market conditions, low leverage in the fund’s financing, and strong bank confidence.
