Summary
The fund achieved approximately EUR 200 million at its first close and has now completed a second closing that has generated sufficient additional commitments to justify expanding the target. This capital raise underscores sustained institutional investor confidence in Nordic real estate opportunities, particularly within the core plus segment of the market. Storebrand Nordic Real Estate Fund II is structured as a core plus vehicle, a strategy that typically balances stable, income-generating properties with value-add and opportunistic investments.
Storebrand Real Estate positions itself as a gateway for local and international investors seeking exposure to Nordic real estate with an explicit focus on supporting the green transition. The fund's expanded target and approach toward the hard cap suggest that Storebrand has successfully identified sufficient deal flow and investor appetite to scale the vehicle beyond its initial expectations. The timing of this increase, following the December 2025 closing, indicates acceleration in Nordic real estate market activity and sustained capital availability from institutional sources.
