New York State Teachers Retirement System (NYSTRS) is investing $300m in three real estate funds managed by Brookfield Asset Management and Gaw Capital Partners.
The pension fund told 91传媒在线 that it will commit $100m to Brookfield Strategic Real Estate Partners III (BSREP III), $100m to Brookfield Senior Mezzanine Real Estate Finance Fund and $100m to Gaw鈥檚 Gateway Real Estate Fund VI.
91传媒在线 reported earlier this year that Brookfield had raised $9.04bn for BSREP III. The fund is targeting $10bn.
NYSTRS, which is for the first time backing Brookfield鈥檚 global opportunity fund series, said its decision to invest in BSREP III is due to the manager鈥檚 鈥渁bility to grow its presence globally and achieve consistently positive performance鈥.
As previously reported, Brookfield鈥檚 open-ended real estate debt fund is looking to raise $1bn. Brookfield Senior Mezzanine Finance Fund will focus on a mixture of office, multi-family, industrial, hotel and retail assets in the US.
Gateway Fund VI will invest a variety of non-core real estate deals in Asia-Pacific.
