Hayfin Capital Management and European real estate manager Capreon have acquired 280 Bishopsgate, the former Royal Bank of Scotland headquarters in the City of London.
The pair invested an undisclosed sum to acquire the fully let, 13-storey office asset near Liverpool Street station, following their joint purchase of the 70 St Mary Axe building from Nuveen in December 2025.
Carlos Colomer, managing director in the private credit team at Hayfin Capital Management, said: “280 Bishopsgate is an exceptional building in one of the best-connected locations in the City, complementing our recent acquisition of 70 St Mary Axe with Capreon. Its recent refurbishment has delivered some of the highest-quality and most sustainable workspace in London, which is reflected in the calibre of its tenants.
“We are pleased to be partnering with Capreon once again and look forward to supporting the building’s continued success.”
Raphael Noé, CEO at Capreon, said: “We are pleased to be investing in 280 Bishopsgate, a landmark City office tower that reflects the quality and long-term value we seek across our portfolio. Following its full redevelopment in 2022, the building offers prime, high-specification workspace and a long, reversionary income profile.
“We are delighted to be working with our long-term partner Hayfin again, following our acquisition of 70 St Mary Axe last year, and to have completed a smooth transaction. Demand for best-in-class City workspace continues to grow, and we see a clear opportunity to apply our asset and investment management expertise to enhance the building’s performance and appeal to occupiers.”
