The deal is fund's first acquisition in Ukraine, a market where few institutional quality assets have been developed and where even fewer are available for purchase, Europa said. Tim Norman, CEO Europa Capital Emerging Europe Limited said: 'Despite today's difficult market conditions, this deal demonstrates that good investment opportunities exist if you have the local knowledge to find them, which we have.'
Europa Capital is an independent real estate fund management group operating from offices across Europe. Since 1995, Europa Capital's principals have collectively raised six real estate funds and committed to over 60 transactions totalling EUR 5bn across 17 European countries.
