| Helvetica Property / Key word(s): Funds/Real Estate 09.10.2024 / 06:30 CET/CEST Press release Zurich, October 9, 2024 – In the interests of investors, the limit on the number of investors in the Helvetica Swiss Living Fund (HSL Fund) will be lifted, subject to FINMA approval. By entering the retail sector, the fund will become accessible to public investors, further consolidating its market presence. Fund managers at Helvetica Property Investors AG intend to increase the number of investors in the HSL Fund to include non-eligible investors. Subject to FINMA approval, it will be marketed in the retail sector, commencing Q4 2024. This move will also give public investors access to investments in Swiss residential real estate via the HSL Fund. The aim of increasing the number of investors is to broaden the investor base and improve the tradeability of its shares for the benefit of all investors. At the same time, this measure will consolidate the market position of the HSL Fund and create a solid foundation for future growth. The increase in the number of investors also forms the basis for a possible listing on the SIX Swiss Exchange. The fund managers will provide information about the next steps. “We’re pleased that we’ll be able to serve other interested investors in future, who were previously unable to access the HSL Fund. Marketing the HSL Fund in the retail sector will now give everyone the opportunity to diversify their portfolio with high-yield, suburban residential real estate in Switzerland’s growth regions,” said Urs Kunz, Chief Commercial Officer at Helvetica. Fund profile The Helvetica Swiss Living Fund (HSL Fund) invests in residential real estate (Core/Core+) in predominantly fast-growing, suburban locations with excellent infrastructure throughout Switzerland. The long-term investment objective is to preserve the fund's value and distribute constant income. As at the end of September 2024, the fund comprised 41 residential properties with a market value of around CHF 542 million. Media contacts
