Peakside Capital Advisors has joined forces with GRP Capital to launch a 50-50 joint venture focusing on investment and asset management for national and international investors, as well as family offices looking for more defensive, higher-yielding assets.

The company, named Peakside GRP Capital, will initially target residential assets and portfolios in Germany, concentrating on markets driven by a 'substantial qualitative or quantitative surplus of demand'.

Peakside Capital Advisors is a specialist European real estate private equity firm, headquartered in Zug, Switzerland. Founded in 2010, Peakside has an opportunistic and value-add risk profile and currently manages €1.4 bn of assets.

GRP Capital was founded in June 2015 by Peter Willisch and Matthias Franke, who were previously responsible for Patrizia Immobilien’s Fund Management Team.

'The creation of Peakside GRP Capital allows us to continue diversifying and extending our product range to incorporate more defensive real estate Investments,' commented Boris Schran and Stefan Aumann, the two managing partners and founders of Peakside.
