Dear readers,

In November last year, we presented our plans to merge funds with similar investment strategies and have since engaged intensively with various market participants.

Now, the first of three planned fund mergers is imminent. As of 30 June 2025, the three Swiss exchange-traded residential real estate funds with direct real estate – ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓÆµ LivingPlus, ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓÆµ Hospitality and Residentia – will be merged. The newly combined fund will continue to use the ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓÆµ LivingPlus name and its investment strategy. The focus is on alternative forms of housing such as retirement and nursing homes, micro-apartments, serviced apartments, serviced living and educational properties such as student housing. ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓÆµ Direct Residential will remain in its current form as an exchange-traded Swiss residential real estate fund with direct real estate, focusing on multi-family buildings in the catchment areas of Zurich, Basel and Bern. As previously announced, we are planning two further fund mergers by 2027 and will provide you with comprehensive information in due course.

We are also pleased to announce that the capital increase for ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓÆµ «Sima» has been successfully completed. The fund has received funds of around CHF 356 million, which will be invested in new construction projects and used to repay debt capital.

We thank you for your interest and look forward to continuing to update you on our progress and developments.

Kind regards,

Dr. Daniel Brüllmann
Head of Real Estate DACH
