EnnisKnupp has extensive experience working with corporations, public pension plans, foundations, and endowments in real estate, including timber and agriculture. Collectively with EnnisKnupp’s other alternatives teams, we also provide thorough real assets coverage, including infrastructure, energy, and commodities.
We realize that each portfolio is different and is constructed based upon many factors over a period of time. We function as a strategic partner to design custom solutions to meet the specific needs of you as a client.
We cover global real estate across public and private markets, debt and equity, property types, life cycle, styles and vehicles (funds, separate accounts, funds-of-funds). We also cover niche areas, including secondaries, co-investments, minority-owned and women-owned business enterprises (“MWBE”), green investments, socially responsible investments (“SRI”) and environmental social governance (“ESG”), emerging managers, and economically targeted investments.
