UK Core Funds

For core investors, we focus on income protection and growth through high quality income and vacancy mitigation with assets likely to meet current and future occupier needs.

Advent Capital Investments Ltd is well-positioned to manage and establish property funds both solely in the UK, and as part of Pan-European mandates (as part of Advent Group Asset Managers). Through our research-led investment approach focussed on the long-term drivers of occupational demand, we implement tailor-made solutions to meet investors’ specific investment criteria and time horizons.

Property Income Trust for Charities (PITCH)

A tax efficient, pooled property fund designed for charity investors.

We work with more than 1,300 UK charities to enable them to generate superior income returns through commercial property investment. Our charity sector clients invest through the Property Income Trust for Charities (PITCH) fund which has a track record of progressive returns and outperformance.

PITCH is a tax-exempt, pooled UK commercial property vehicle available to all charities. With a commitment to socially responsible investment, PITCH has the advantage of allowing properties to be acquired free of Stamp Duty Land Tax. The Fund aims to deliver a relatively high- and sustainable-income yield whilst at least maintaining capital value in real terms over the economic cycle.
