It also provides Exeter management with the ability to continue their track-record as a top-performing, real estate investment manager. The combination accelerates EQT AB’s strategic growth ambition within Real Estate, creating a scaled thematic investment platform with global reach, and further strengthens EQT as a global leader in value-add investment strategies across private equity, infrastructure and real estate.
