Antwort Capital’s Post

A lot of CFOs, treasurers, and credit managers still say, “Wait, you can help me set up a #factoring solution? I thought you only did #creditinsurance.” Sure, we were born with credit insurance back in 1929. But we've also been helping drive the growth of factoring for over 20 years now. The thing is, factoring leverages customer receivables—the very assets we’ve been insuring all this time. So, let’s just say we were already halfway there for our clients! Today, at AU GROUP Finance, we offer: ✅ Experts all over France and the world, all from the financing ecosystem. ✅ A tool, #AUDigital, that will act as a financing enhancer. ✅ 800 clients, ranging from SMEs to multinational giants, including a lot owned by #PrivateEquity funds, who trust us to negotiate and implement their working capital financing. ✅ 45 billion euros in receivables financed in 2023, both in France and across dozens of countries, through French or local banks. To all my contacts at IPEM—take a few minutes to chat with Matthieu ARNOUX, Marc Delerue and Henry Cagnac. They’ll explain how we can support you, both before and during your investments, to find, negotiate, and make working capital financing operationally efficient. And if not, catch you in Paris or somewhere else soon! PS: Yes, I know, others have already told you about this. But you don’t just have one partner for your due diligence, right? 😉

The opportunity for growth in the Italian real estate market continues to attract international investors. Foreign capital already accounts for a substantial portion of the country’s real estate investment, and investors from abroad bring valuable expertise and a global perspective. 🔹 However, in such a complex and fragmented market, with varying regulations and transaction processes across the country, the need for local partners is paramount. This is even more so when venturing beyond Italy’s principal cities and considering secondary cities - something which is increasingly catching the eye of international investors of late. Cross-border capital will be the coveted topic of discussion at the talk show during the second day of Italia GRI 2024, led by an international panel of experts offering exclusive analysis and insights - Andrea Montanino (CDP Cassa Depositi e Prestiti, Italy), Emanuele Boni (RIVA ASSET MANAGEMENT, Luxembourg), Francesco Zanella (Starwood Capital Group, United Kingdom), Matteo Cidonio (GWM Group , UK), and Tim Wilkinson (Indotek Group, Hungary). 🔗 Read more and enquire to join here: https://lnkd.in/dRVd-xNc #griclub #realestate #italy #investment #crossborder

Interesting discussions from the panelists this morning at the ALFI - Association of the Luxembourg Fund Industry conference in New-York. Among the topics that were debated, the retailisation of private assets proved particularly interesting, demonstrating both the evolution of the investor landscape and the will of the authorities to provide sustainable fund structures such as ELTIF 2.0 as a response to that evolution. As asset managers are expected to increasingly seek to attract private investors, this development definitely represents opportunities for the Luxembourg fund industry!

Great to be back home in Frankfurt with the ongoing European Championship after a one-week roadshow in Kuala Lumpur, Tokyo and Seoul. I was excited to hear about our investors' keen interest in global markets, reinforcing PGIM Real Estate's global perspective in today's interconnected world. In essence, we believe opportunities in equity or debt strategies are very attractive in current conditions, including value decline combined with illiquidity, accretive leverage and rental growth. Here are my thoughts on how Europe represents the most compelling investment opportunity globally:   - Market illiquidity: We are witnessing a funding gap on the debt side, as well as a lack of liquidity in the European core and core-plus market. Providing many opportunities to purchase or recapitalize assets well below valuations, which have already decreased by 20% on average. - Accretive Leverage: Although limited and only available for the high-growth asset classes leverage has become more accretive as prime yields move out toward 5%, which is not the case for a lot of the major global real estate markets. - Structurally low supply: European major markets have been undersupplied or under-invested in cap ex since the GFC and we see no signs of a structural change going forward. This means that although our economy might show slow growth, there will be pockets of strong rental growth in certain markets and asset classes. It is all about deal, market and strategy selection.   Read more about our perspectives in Global Outlook: https://lnkd.in/ezFAWtMZ   *For Professional Investors only
