Meyer Bergman

Meyer Bergman is a privately held real estate investment management firm with more than €6 billion in assets under management. It was formed in 2004 by its chairman, Ton Meijer, and its chief executive officer, Markus Meijer from the holdings of the former MAB Group.[1]

Strategy

Meyer Bergman targets well-located, retail and mixed-use real estate in Europe and the United States that are under-managed or under-utilised. Typical transaction values range between €30 million and €300 million.[2]

Developments

In 2012, it was reported that Meyer Bergman owns London's Burlington Arcade, The Bentall Centre in Kingston upon Thames, and Exchange Ilford in Ilford, Essex.[3]

Meyer Bergman was one of the principals behind the recent acquisition of large parts of the Queensway district of West London with a view to the redevelopment of the area. The purchases include the Queensway Estate, location of the ice skating rink and Queensway Market, and the Whiteleys shopping centre which was purchased from Standard Life Investments.[4][5]

In June 2015 it was announced that Meyer Bergman would partner with London property entrepreneur Warren Todd to redevelop Whiteleys in a mixed used scheme that would include housing, leisure facilities and retail premises to be designed by Foster & Partners.[6]

In October 2015, it was announced that Meyer Bergman would be buying over a dozen of Tesco's 49 mothballed sites in a £250m deal, and that "some 10,000 homes could be built on the sites in London, the South East and Bath".[7]

Funds

Meyer Bergman advises four closed-ended, value-add real estate funds, the VIA Outlet Venture, and co-investments totalling more than €6 billion of assets under management on behalf of global institutional investors, which include leading pension funds, endowments and asset managers from Europe, North America, the Middle East, and Asia.[8]

gollark: This is presumably not the same as actually being drunk.
gollark: I'm immune to peer pressure up to about 712GPa.
gollark: This is NOT true. I have not in any way been sponsored by pizza companies. There have been no advertising agreements whatsoever with any companies producing pizza or otherwise to have me subliminally advertise pizza, as my profile picture is not a pizza. Since it is not a pizza, this is obviously not pizza advertisement whatsoever. No monetary exchanges or otherwise have occurred with companies engaged in pizza production for any reason relating to my profile picture. You are clearly engaged in libel and attempting to discredit my non-pizza-advertising status. It is IN NO WAY subliminal pizza advertising because I DO NOT work for pizza companies in any form. It's not pizza. There were no deals, under-the-table or otherwise, with pizza companies. No pizza companies pay for any kind of subliminal advertising involving me. People make that mistake, but I am not working for pizza companies doing subliminal advertising; that is not in any way what I am doing. I am NOT being sponsored by ANY pizza companies to display subliminal pizza advertising OF ANY KIND.
