We pursue investment strategies in direct real estate investment in Asia Pacific, with a focus on gateway cities. Our two main strategies are executed via (1) TE Asia Opportunities Series, which focuses on value-add and opportunistic mandates in Singapore, Australia, and Japan as key markets, and (2) TE Income Partners Series, which focuses on providing stable income and capital preservation for our investors. With localized asset management teams and operational and development expertise integrated into our platform, we seek to create value and generate superior returns through disciplined underwriting and active investment management.
TE Capital Partners has offices in Singapore and Australia, and is a major shareholder in Tokyo Trust Capital, a Japan based real estate asset management company specializing in investment opportunities in Japan and abroad.
We implement global best practices across all geographies we operate in, and are committed to do business in an ethical manner which yields long-term, sustainable benefits for all our stakeholders.
