Mapletree Investments Pte. Ltd., of Singapore, has closed its MUSEL Private Trust at about $1.8 billion in total fund equity. MUSEL is a fully invested yielding portfolio that holds 262 logistics assets across 26 states<\/a> in the U.S. and 20 cities across seven European countries at a total investment value of $4.3 billion.<\/p>\n

\n

The trust will be managed by Mapletree Real Estate Advisors Pte. Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Mapletree Investments, which will retain a 34 percent stake in MUSEL. This reportedly is similar to the company\u2019s approach with other sponsored private funds such as Mapletree Australia Commercial Private Trust, Mapletree Global Student Accommodation Private Trust and Mapletree\u2019s four Singapore-listed REITs.<\/p>\n

MUSEL has a total of about 56 million square feet, an overall average portfolio occupancy of 94.3 percent and a weighted average unexpired lease term of 4.4 years. The tenant base reportedly is well diversified with consumer goods, third-party logistics and e-commerce tenants comprising two-thirds of the portfolio by leasable area.<\/p>\n

MUSEL\u2019s U.S. properties are strategically located close to population and consumption centers in states such as California, Texas, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, as well as key logistics and transportation hubs in the Midwest. In Europe, the portfolio is diversified across 20 cities in seven countries, including Poland, France, Germany and Spain.<\/p>\n

Strong, possibly slowing<\/h2>\n

Mapletree Investment CEO Mr. Hiew Yoon Khong noted in a prepared statement that despite a challenging macroeconomic global situation, investors remain attracted to the logistics sector\u2019s strong fundamentals.<\/p>\n

After a slowish start to 2019, logistics space absorption in Europe picked up enough to stabilize the market by year\u2019s end, according to a February report from JLL. Though logistics development in Europe remains at record levels, increasing difficulty finding suitable development sites could lead to lower deliveries this year.<\/p>\n

Mapletree has had more than its share of giga-deals recently. Last April, New York Life Real Estate Investors put up two loans<\/a> totaling $915.2 million, secured by a Mapletree industrial portfolio of 100 industrial buildings across the U.S. and comprising 17.2 million square feet. And in a $1.4 billion deal in September, Mapletree Investments agreed to purchase from Digital Realty a portfolio of 10 data centers<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
