    Global sovereign wealth funds slowed direct investment in the real estate sector in 2022 compared to 2021. Interestingly, Singapore’s GIC Private Limited went on a buying spree of listed real estate investment trusts (REITs). This top 10 excludes platform and fund investments in the real estate sector. For example, these direct agreements leave out joint ventures such as the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA) which partners with Landmark Properties for US student housing or ADIA’s JV with Rockpoint Group, LLC on US industrial properties. In addition, SWFI staff attempted to vet other buyers in certain transactions to gain SWF’s true exposure on each direct real estate sector transaction.

    Other honorable mentions include Norway Government Pension Fund Global’s purchase of a 50% stake in the Sony Center in Berlin for 677 million euros. The Sony Center is a Sony-sponsored eight-building complex located on Potsdamer Platz in Berlin, Germany, designed by Helmut Jahn. ADIA has invested in Mindspace Business Parks REIT.
