What does do?
The corporate strategy is to acquire real estate, real
estate related opportunities and asset rich companies in the UK where
active corporate, asset and financial management is expected to enhance
both income and capital returns thereby increasing earnings and asset
value.
Under its current management, Moorfield Group (Moorfield) was a public
company listed on the London Stock Exchange from 1996 to March 2001,
at which time the Company was taken private through a management buy-out.
In 2005, following a diversified and highly successful investment and
subsequent disposal programme of some £2 billion, Moorfield determined
to invest and directly manage equity on behalf of third parties. To
this end, the Moorfield Real Estate Fund Limited Partnership (MREF) was
formed by Moorfield. MREF had over £1 billion of purchasing
capacity and was fully invested within 18 months. Investments made had
business plans of over 5 years duration reflecting active asset management
opportunities. The raising of Moorfield Real Estate Fund II Limited
Partnership (MREF II) at the end of 2007 has enabled an ongoing investment
programme of some £1.5bn plus the ability to raise further funds
through co-investment with its international ‘blue
chip’ fund investors.
In order to facilitate the formation and management of MREF/MREF
II and the structure of transactions, a wholly owned subsidiary of Moorfield
Group, Moorfield Investment Management Limited is utilised. This company
is regulated by the FSA and is also a full member of the British Venture
Capital Association (BVCA) and the European Private Equity and Venture
Capital Association (EVCA).
