Swiss Life Living + Working: New Property Investment Fund in Swiss Quality

Living + Working* – a Fund of Innovative Diversity

Swiss Life REF (DE) European Real Estate Living and Working — or “Living + Working” for short — is an open-ended property fund for private investors in Germany. With its groundbreaking fund strategy, Living + Working sets new standards for how to align with the latest market trends and mega trends. The fund strategy has the following objectives: Earning a stable long-term income, and taking a responsible approach to risk management. It is a conservative fund in the true sense of the word — and this is something that counts in uncertain times. These benefits make the Living + Working fund the optimal basis for solid long-term planning in a self-determined, confident approach.

More Types of Real Estate for Added Stability

Living + Working: People tend to live and work in buildings — so it’s all in the name! The investment focus is aimed primarily at the property segments health and residential (living), on the one hand, plus office and retail (working), on the other hand. The medium-term goal of the fund management is to set up a property target portfolio consisting of residential and healthcare real estate (including retirement homes, care homes, medical centres, etc.) and of office and retail real estate. With this allocation by use classes, Living + Working sets itself apart from the majority of open-ended public real estate funds. The difference being that the different property types are evenly allocated in the Living + Working investment fund. This reduces the risk of making yourself dependent on a single property segment.

Notes on the Calculation of the Performance of the Asset Investment Pools

Unless otherwise stated, any performance details quoted on this website were calculated using the BVI method (time-weighted return). The BVI method takes all costs accruing on the level of the investment asset pool into account (e. g. management fees); additional costs could be incurred on the investor level (e. g. custody-account charges) that are not taken into account in this representation. Please note that the performance of the investment asset pool calculated in this manners does not generally reflect the actual return on investment. However, this choice of method makes it possible to compare the management performance of different investment funds with similar investment foci without getting a distorted picture due to different fee structures.

Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future returns.

General Notes on Risks
Past performance offers no guarantees for the future performance of a given investment. The value of shares and the income returned by them can both rise and fall. Similarly, exchanges rate changes can have a positive or negative impact on the value of a given investment. At maturity, you may therefore get back a lower amount than you originally invested.

For detailed notes on risks and/or on tax aspects for each investment asset pool, please read the sales prospectus of the respective investment asset pool. Investors or leads interested in the subscription of shares in the investment asset pool are expressly advised to carefully read these risk and tax notes and/or to seek the advice of a tax consultant before making any investment decision.
