Invesco, on behalf of an institutional client, made \u201ca significant equity commitment for investment in future acquisitions\u201d through the trust.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, Mercury Trust has obtained a $675 million credit facility for current and future acquisitions.<\/p>\n<p>The REIT is intended to own industrial assets that are net-leased to investment-grade and high-quality non\u2013investment-grade companies across the U.S., with an emphasis on distribution centers, logistics properties and cold storage facilities.<\/p>\n<p>Mercury Trust is externally managed via the joint venture between Jera and a separately managed account of Invesco Real Estate.<\/p>\n<p>A list of the initial properties is not being released, nor is information regarding the relative ownership stakes in Mercury Trust, Jera Managing Partner David Kay told <em>Commercial Property Executive<\/em>. He noted that Jera has been involved in the net-lease sector since the company\u2019s inception in early 2019, focusing specifically on net-leased industrial.<\/p>\n<p>Kay added that he and his fellow managing partner at Jera, Carrington Guy, \u201csee a lot of opportunities in that sector with Mercury Trust.
