13.2.2009

Munich. Initiators of closed German real estate funds are returning to simplicity. For a long time, more risky constructs such as opportunity funds and project developments were popular; now, the classical real estate funds with portfolio real estate are entering market again. This development became obvious at the "Feri Symposium der Beteiligungsmodelle 2009" in the Kempinski Airport Hotel Munich last week. Hotels could move into the focus of investors again.

Funds Initiator August Jagdfeld struggles with more and more problems
Visions under the microscope 
13.2.2009

Berlin. The German funds initiator, Anno August Jagdfeld, still likes to paint himself as an optimistic visionary, even in times of economic difficulty. Above all, his glamorous real estate properties are dear to his heart and of these he feels especially close to the Grand Hotel Heiligendamm. Yet after Kempinski surprisingly decided to terminate its contract for the Grand Hotel last week, a whole era for the "Pearl of the Baltic Sea" and its comfortable existence in the middle of nowhere seems to be over. Anno August Jagdfeld now intends to take matters into his own hands and to polish the hotel into a new diamond - just like to old family led luxury hotels. Yet it won't be as simple as he imagines his task to be. Jagdfeld's empire is crumbling considerably in other areas too. Could the break with Kempinski herald the beginning of the end for Jagdfeld?
