PERE 50 2015 - Real Estate Private Equity Rankings

I haven't seen it posted here and I used to post them annually, so here it is - the 2015 real estate private equity rankings, made up of all the names you would expect. Still, there are some newcomers (Greystar, Almanac) and a couple of big falls and rises. If nothing else, it's good to keep up with and fantastic for finding places to apply to.

In the Exec Summary they say no banks made this year's list. Does anyone know why? Don't some banks still manage large funds, or were the sold/made separate entities?

I'm currently at a bb, and we def are investing equity, but are not PE. But DB, JP Morgan, GS - do they not manage funds too? I'm pretty sure they were on the list in the past.

It's based on equity raised. Banks were pummeled during the downturn and have yet to recover

 

The ranking measures equity raised in the last few years - MS and GS funds got crushed in the downturn and my understanding is that they have not raised new funds since. MS just raised $400M for fund 8 but nowhere near as large as previous funds nor enough to make the list.

 
DBCooper:

Same names, but some big movements. Many funds are raising big equity.

Ya I agree. Some highlights:

15 of the 50 are newcomers to the list, including 18. CapitaLand, 21. Oaktree, and 25. Perella Weinberg.

Starwood jumped from 12 to 2, LaSalle jumped from 10 to 5, and Brookfield jumped from 23 to 9. Beacon fell from 8 to 28, Hines from 22 to 37, Morgan Stanley from 2 to 11.

Commercial Real Estate Developer

Some on the list are not what I would consider REPE, but more like traditional real estate investors and developers, like Brookfield, Tishman Speyer and also Capitalland which develops large commercial properties esp malls in Asia.

Too late for second-guessing Too late to go back to sleep.
 

True there are some not "pure" REPE guys, but that capital raise for Brookfield is an opportunity/value fund, and it's not part of the REIT. TS is private equity, but I'd expect mostly for construction obviously.

In this case, the list is for PE moneys, and even the operators raise equity capital in a similar x/xx% format (TS, Hines, Vornado, etc.)

You're born, you take shit. You get out in the world, you take more shit. You climb a little higher, you take less shit. Till one day you're up in the rarefied atmosphere and you've forgotten what shit even looks like. Welcome to the layer cake, son.

TOTAL EQUITY RAISED SINCE 2009 $176.519

 

Lone Star, Angelo Gordon, Oaktree and Global Logistic Properties making moves.

Lone Star is on fire. Since 2010 these guys have raised between their real estate funds and distressed commercial debt funds: $22.0 billion. This isn't even including the $12 billion they are currently raising.

Does Global Logistic Properties (GLP) really qualify as PERE? These guys are ridiculous btw.
